Uh, Alexandra, you may not know this, but Pop's started off selling one thing: chocolate milkshakes. Hence the name Pop's Chock'lit Shoppe. That was back when this was the first and only Black-owned business in town. It was open 24/7. A safe place for people like us when those were few and far between. So no, it's not "just a milkshake," and this isn't "just a business." It's a legacy. And I can't give that up for a bottom line.
