@DHL, Crayon, and slurm: I think we should probably put together some sort of mid-atlantic gas station potluck. I recommend Sheetz MTO sandwiches and Royal Farms fried chicken to go with the Wawa, Turkey Hill, and Rutters stuff. Oh yeah and Tastykakes and Maple Donuts

@DHL, looks like we’re going to be fightin’. I’ll bring the hashbrowns and chocolate pie.

Yay, any mention of Wawa makes me happy. I go to school up north, and whenever I say how much I miss Wawa and Rita’s, people get confused. And it’s hard to explain in words the beauty of Wawa (though cheap, customizable mint chocolate chip milkshakes and $3 hoagies helps) and heavenliness of Rita’s. “Like Italian ice, but softer” isn’t the most appealing description.

Wawa has 5-packs of peanut chews for a quarter. That alone makes me love them. And I can completely relate to the indignation when someone compares Wawa to that bastion of hopelessness, 7-11. Though I tend to go to street vendors for soft pretzels, since you can get them for like 30 cents there.

Most of the Turkey Hill stores are in Chester and Lancaster counties. They are a lot like 7-11, in my experience. But they do carry just about every turkey hill drink and ice cream, which is cool. They also carry some Kroger stuff since Kroger owns them.

Next you need to review some Tastykakes!

*gasp* you-you mean TUrkey Hill is a store also? NO WAY! I <3 Turkey hill ice cream and drinks.

I’m so thrilled to get an East Coast reviewer on TIB!!!!!!!

Yay wawa pretzels!….since joining Weight watchers I cannot eat them as much as I used to…but I used to go there before the movies, grab an ice tea or soda and a two pack of those pretzels and sneak em in my purse into the theater.! Good times…..oh btw, when you eat em at home…ranch dip is a fab accompaniment.

Wawa sides and soups are TO DIE FOR(check out sausage escarole…new flavor and the turkey cranberry sauce mash potatoe stuffing bowl)!!!! Subs are pretty fab too! I don’t know if they make the biscuit and sausage gravy bowl anymore, but that was awesome.

@Trisha
I went to college up in PA, weren’t Turkey Hills a big thing out there?

well you are all lucky cause in South Carolina we have no WaWa no 7-11 no Sheetz no good nothing. (How’s that for grammar?) we DO have Gazba gas stations and BP’s! oh wait, that is nothing to be excited about.

How about a review for a new product? It kinda sounds like you’ve been eating these for a while…

Don’t jump down my throat here, but when it comes to Pennsylvania gas station pretzels, nothing beats the soft ones at Rutters! Wawa ones are good too, but don’t try the ones at Sheetz, theyre just the frozen kind you can get at any grocery store.

WAWA pretzels are the bomb! A two-pack of pretzels and a coffee is the greatest I’m-late-for-class-but-I-didn’t-eat-lunch meal you’ll ever have.

angry bob thought dry and soft were generally mutually exclusive in pretzeldom. angry bob doesn’t have a wawa’s, though.

I was so excited to read an east coast-specific review here for once! Please continue reviewing Wawa’s products! (Side note – I am from the Philly area and went to college in Lancaster County, where Wawas are scarce, but you start getting into Sheetz territory. Maybe you could make a trip out there and do a review of Shmuffins or Shmiscuits.)

@Natalie – Waffle house beats any diner? Them is fightin words here in Jersey!

@Cindy – Now now, lets not get into a Biggie/Tupac like fake internet war.

@Dana – Yes, they are Hoagies. Not subs, heros or grinders.

@willrun4food – Where is the passion Cindy had shown, you need to demand more Central/Midwest coverage from Marvo, that left coast bastard.
