Sioux Falls mobile market ‘running on hope'
SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (KELO) — The end could be near for a grocery store on wheels in KELOLAND. The Eat Well Sioux Falls Mobile Market launched in 2023. A mix of grants, including money from the Sioux Falls Health Department, helped it get its start. The market is aimed at making groceries more accessible and affordable. Deuel County could be multi-billion data center site The Eat Well Sioux Falls Mobile Market makes eight stops each week, including at Active Generations on West 46th Street. Connie Berven lives nearby and says it's convenient to shop here. 'I got some bananas and I got some grapes and I got some yogurt,' Berven said. But there's a problem. Sioux Falls Thrive says there's only enough cash on hand to keep the market open through June. 'It's at a point now where we've kind of tested the waters. We knew…it's never going to make money, we've known that for a long time. Now we're at that point where we're going, 'Does the community support it or not?'' Sioux Falls Thrive President Michelle Erpenbach said. The mobile market has also faced some uncertainly over federal funding in recent months. Sioux Falls Thrive launched the mobile market as a pilot project. The organization is working on turning the market into its own nonprofit, something Erpenbach says would be a better business model. 'But getting it to that point takes several months, so it's a matter of can we cobble together enough donors to get it to that point where we're at the end of this calendar year, be able to stand it up on its own,' Erpenbach said. The market's future is unknown. 'We're literally running on hope at this point,' Erpenbach said. But Erpenbach is certain this project matters. 'This project is one of the ways that we as a community can step up and support those folks who just need a little extra help, they just need affordable groceries in their neighborhood,' Erpenbach said. Berven hopes to see this mobile market continue making stops throughout the city. 'It just seems like it's something everybody can use,' Berven said. Erpenbach says the best way for the public to support to the market is through shopping there. She says donations are also helpful. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

University student shares 'ultimate lifehack' to beat hangovers
A Canadian University student has claimed to have the ultimate 'LIFEHACK' in helping people worldwide beat their hangovers and all that is required is just a small bit of preparation. We've all had the horrific experience of feeling like we're in the pits of hell, googling how to get rid of a hangover, but one of the most common reasons for hangovers is hydration — or lack thereof. 21-year-old Lucy Welcher from Nova Scotia has the hack to beat the hangover, meaning people worldwide don't have to waste their Sundays (or whatever day) away pledging to never drink again. A Canadian University student has claimed to have the ultimate 'LIFEHACK' in helping people worldwide beat their hangovers and all that is required is just a small bit of preparation. Pic: Getty Images Taking to TikTok the content creator shared a clip of herself pouring an electrolyte sachet into her glass in the middle of the club. 'POV: putting electrolytes in my drinks at the bar so I won't be hungover in the morning LIFEHACK.'

Dehydration after a few drinks can lead to a hangover which can be quite nasty and be a combination of tiredness and a headache as well as dizzyness and thristy. Electrolytes, in turn, balance the amount of water in your body, therefore helping with hydration. They can be beneficial during workouts as well as sickness. Eat Well notes that while electrolytes likely do help with hangovers, it doesn't permit you to 'drink excessively without consequences.'

Dietitian Catherine Gervacio explained that while they won't wholly prevent a hangover, they could reduce the symptoms of one. Ultimately, the best way to prevent a hangover is to refrain from drinking altogether, electrolytes can help in replenishing nutrients that you are losing. Eat Well adds that this could be done between alcoholic drinks as well as right before bed.
