So I have an interesting story to tell, but you will have to for Issue 9, United Free Boxes of America, to get the full story. I do have a little tidbit that I will share because I was told to include this youtube video for reference. So here goes:
I went to a free box sale today. I was interviewing Ben, the coordinator of the sale, and he told me to be sure and include the jar of "sweetberrywine" in the zine story. Apparently this jar, along with some other jars that were labeled dandelion wine (yum?) were in the basement of the house when he moved in so it had been around for a while. The special thing about this wine is that it looks like it's liquid as wine should be, but if you tilt it, the middle is solid. I have no idea what would make "wine" do this, but it's true.
Here are the photos for your own judgement on the matter:
