🥛 Oatly In The Mix
Just last week, Jamba (formerly known as Jamba Juice) became the very first national smoothie chain to offer Oatly’s plant-based oat milk.

There are tons of Jambas around the Bay Area, and if you need help with your order, let us suggest the Smooth Talkin’ Mango — it’s Oatly mixed up with mangos, pineapples, and organic agave.

🚆 In Other News
All Aboard
The California High-Speed Rail Board has announced their vote that favored the bullet train route to connect SF to LA — finally. In addition to the direct line to Southern California, the rail system will also offer shorter routes including San Jose to San Francisco. Though it has already been a long time coming, the latest projections put just the Central Valley portion of the system to be running by 2028. Nevertheless, whatever year the SF-to-LA route hits California, we’ll be on the platform, beach towel in hand.
Prost!
This Saturday, outdoor venue SPARK Social SF is hosting its very own Oktoberfest to celebrate Munich’s world-renowned festival.
