Oh, dear freakin' Lord!!! What a way to spend a Saturday, but I found it!!! Definitive proof that Bucks Camping and Fishing has a BASEMENT!!!

Here's the article:

And I quote:
"Like Pastan, James Alefantis, owner of Comet Ping Pong in D.C., doesn't build his pizza sauce with DOP San Marzanos. For seven years, he has been buying late-harvest tomatoes from Toigo Orchards in Shippensburg, Pa., and canning them at nearby Stello Foods for use at Comet. Last year, Alefantis estimates, he bought 12 tons of Toigo tomatoes, which Stello turned into sauce and canned before trucking the jars to the basement at Buck's Fishing & Camping, Alefantis' other restaurant nearby."
Can I get a hallelujah and amen?

Wow, last year he bought 12 tons of tomatoes? I wonder how much that translates into in terms of cans? Found this: 1 cup canned tomatoes = 1-1/2 cups fresh, chopped, cooked tomatoes. I'm thinking that has to be a huge basement!

15 LBS of GRAPES makes one liter of wine, U people obviously know little of about how this stuff works. I would speculate that 200 LBS of raw tomatoes can make a 80LB bucket of tomatoe sauce. Which would be around 5 gallons.
Remember grapes, tomatoes, and humans are 95% water. ...
Do the math, what is it a few dozen pallets and those were the weight of fresh tomatoes, they have stew them before canning, which probably dropped the weight to 5 tons, which would be ten pallets, stacked it would just take a few sq-yards,
My bet is 5 gallon food grade sealed buckets, about 100LB each, that would be 50 buckets, could be piled to the ceiling again, just a few sq-yards.
Why do morons not investigate Besta-Pizza and ANDREW-KLINE DOJ?

Pretty sure the Andrew Kline thing is debunked. Everybody knows damn well this basement thing is the exhaust chute on the death star
