Utah's open container law prohibits drivers from possessing soda or other caffeinated beverages in a vehicle unless they obtain a permit and keep the drinks in a locked case.

Scandal erupted in 2023 when Orrin Smith, an elder in the LDS church, was arrested with three open cans after leaving a so-called "dirty soda" stand in Provo. Smith, 21, plead guilty to the charges and agreed to attend counseling sessions on the dangers of caffeine.

The local Jewery serves the best pulled pork and bacon sandwiches I’ve ever eaten. Their motto is “If you don’t dine on swine, then you’re no friend of mine”

"Swig also sells non-soda beverages and energy drinks fortified with extra caffeine."

iirc for Mormons the fatwa isn't on caffeine but on "hot beverages" or something equally inane, likely cooked up on the trail to save J. Smith a couple ledger entries on the trail west

Correct. Their scripture or whatever bans "hot beverages" but not caffeine itself. SLC Mormons don't really follow this rule and drink coffee freely. It's probably all the small towns outside of SLC where the Mormons go insane, not just with hot drinks but also polygamy.

Source: I used to work for a company headquartered in SLC. They had coffee makers in the SLC office.

Bumped

I think Provo is the big conservative Mormon place and SLC is more like Romney cafeteria style Mormonism

SLC is also bizarrely clean with lots of friendly people iirc

SLC has almost no homeless people IIRC because they give almost all of them housing. Plus, even the downtown area isn't that dense.

SLC is generally clean but has one glaring issue: horrible air quality. The city is surrounded by mountains, which traps all the smog/pollution/etc. in the city. When I visited SLC, I drove down to Bryce Canyon one weekend. On the drive back, I thought something was wrong with my car as I entered SLC because it started to smell so bad. Turns out that's just what stale smog smells like.
