When we asked Jeff why this would be his theme song, he said, "You never know what you'd expect from me." If you have met Jeff, this reason makes a lot of sense. If you have not met Jeff, come on in to say hi!

Whole Milk vs Oat Milk 🐄

As a Social Enterprise of Carey Services, we get to celebrate DSP Appreciation Week as well. Part of that celebration is themed dress up days. Yesterday's theme was Villain versus Superhero. Here we have the ultimate coffee lover's debate of all time - Oat Milk or Whole Milk?

We all know for our Dairy Free friends, Whole Milk is most definitely the villain. What do you think?
