Hey, those aren’t mixed greens!
A Missouri supermarket is truly giving the people what they want during the pandemic, transforming their in-store salad bar into a self-serve booze buffet.
The Manchester branch of Dierbergs Markets recently repurposed its traditional salad bar into a grab and go booze bar, filling the station’s slots with 99-cent shooters and cans of beer, the New York Post reports.

A spokesperson for Dierbergs confirmed that drinks at the booze bar are currently available for sale and explained how the alcoholic pop-up came to be.
“Looking for a way to leverage an empty salad bar, which has been closed since March of this year during the COVID-19 operational changes, Rick Rodemacher, our store director at our Manchester [location] had the idea to place beer cans in the empty space,” spokesperson Jamie Collins told the Post. “It started with beer cans and then liquor bottles.”
