Classic gas station germ laden roller grill fare
Basically a taquito, I tried it once and still not worth the dollar.

What are your best gas station food picks?

Never heard of them, but if I ever see them I'll score some to throw on my 18 hot dog griller.

You must be in the white part of Michigan. Kind of a spicy fat Taquito/Flauta.

I’m not really familiar with gas station foods. I rarely ever go into one, i’d rather pay a few more cents at the pump then walk into one, and end up getting stuck in line by some idiot buying $200 worth of lottery tickets.

My 7-11 now has hot dogs, pork sausages, pizza, chicken wings, boneless wings and about 5 different kind of tortilla meat treats.

All look nasty, but apparantly their clientele is more concerned with substance than taste, as it appears every third person in line grabs some of these tasty offerings.

There's a place called "Tornado Burger" near my office.

Sloppiest, greasiest, cheesiest burger ever. You need a roll of paper towels to eat one. Love them.

Reminds me of place in east FTL called Jack's, been there 50+ years, always a great burger, AND I think the key is they never use a towel or napkin to lessen the grease factor.
Grease is GOOD!!
As a rule, I almost always forego the cheese, as I want to taste the beef!!

That sign looks like an old Burger Chef joint.

I played some foosball at summer camp, I think between 6th and 7th grade.
I was undefeated the first three weeks, won all games by a landslide, AND then one of the counselors saw me holding the opponents sticks, after that I stopped playing.

Did you end up playing foosball with the counselor?

Nope, her boobs were too mufuge, she could not play, as they would bang against the tops of player's head.

I think I have the photos somewhere,,,

Never had a tornado, but I may have had a Blizzard or two.

Everything cooked/pre-heated at any gas station tastes like old gunky grease from all those items cooked since the store opened. The employees there are NOT food handlers nor have sanitation training.

Do they wash their hands?
Only if you are watching.

Maybe, but the twisting would have been uncomfortable...
