Let it be known that one way that Odwalla wants you to know that their drinks are made from fresh ingredients with no preservatives is that they are classified “extremely perishable.”
At Pax Anna and I pretty much skimped on breakfast and lunch because there’s just so much to do there that we don’t want to [...]
