The linked article is about high Soylent sales at the Walmart in Grand Forks, ND. Only late in the article does author Jenny Zhang note that the Canadian border is less than two hours away; in fact, it’s a 2:40 drive from Grand Forks to Winnipeg. Plus, one supposes, the time spent crossing the border.

“How many?”

“… a dozen…”

“Ok, drive safe.”

(driving away) “…cases!”
