There's essential. And then there's "Florida Essential."
From the Times:
 
In Florida, World Wrestling Entertainment has found itself among the services considered “essential,” according to Mayor Jerry L. Demings of Orange County. “With some conversations with the governor’s office regarding the governor’s order, they were deemed an essential business. Therefore, they were allowed to remain open.”
 
Other Florida businesses recently re-classified as “essential” by Gov. Ron DeSantis:
 
Morrie’s Brisket
Pickup only, 20 lb minimum.
Because if you can eat it all, Bubbula, it’s not hoarding.
