Because they are more likely will not have a lawyer to represent them or not show up for summon hearings due to work or family obligations thus they're the ones ending-up paying the fines. Where have I been the last ten years? Kept being harassed by the NYPD and the New York PEP for trying to enjoy a public gathering.

For when a recipe calls for beer (stew for example) and you don't want to buy a bunch of stout that you won't drink.<br /><br />2. For when you have a sh8tty day at work and you're not a wine drinker (which is acceptable to have a glass of at the end of a day, so why not a glass of beer?), so you just want a beer and relax.<br /><br />3. For when you want to mix and match and create your own six-pack of a few different beers to bring to a friend's place (hello beerstore!).<br /><br />I love Key Food - it's cheap, local, and if I don't want to, I don't have to talk to anyone.
