\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

(NOTE: Part of this review is written in “Sheetz Speak<\/a>.”)<\/small><\/p>\n

I livez in Philadelphia, which iz Wawa country. I lovez my Wawa just az much az I lovez my Philliez, but recentlyz I wanted to seez what the fusz waz aboutz over the central and western Pennsylvania\u00e2\u20ac\u2122z version of Wawa, which iz Sheetz. Az a huge Wawa fan, I waz skeptical of Sheetz and I feltz guilty to cheatz on my beloved.<\/p>\n

Howeverz, despite the cheezy way of using Z\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s instead of S\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s like they\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re trying to appeal to the kidz, Sheetz iz slightly better bcuz you can actually eatz your made-to-order food at most Sheetz locationz. Yez, you can actually take your date to a gaz station for a romantic dinner of made-to-order subz, wrapz and coffeez. <\/p>\n

If you really want to impress, perhaps go for the Tastykake Butterscotch Krimpet Cupo\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ccino.<\/p>\n

I was thirsty for a 32-ounce fountain Diet Dr Pepper when I entered Sheetz, but when I saw the little decal on the DIY Cappuccino\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 ahem, I mean Cupo\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ccino machine, my thirst for something ice cold disappeared. This hot liquid is a Keystone state powerhouse; not only does it come from Sheetz, but it’s Tastykake-flavored. I think the only thing that could possibly trump this would be a scrapple<\/a>-flavored Cupo\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ccino served in a plastic Phillies (or Pirates) helmet that Dairy Queen used to use for their sundaes (I ALWAYS got the damn Montreal Expos). Or maybe a cheesesteak-flavored cupo\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ccino served inside of the Liberty Bell<\/a>. Luckily for this non-native Pennsylvanian, scrapple or cheesesteak flavor is not available as a beverage choice in the Cupo\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ccino machine at Sheetz.<\/p>\n

The drink comes out steaming hot, but extremely watery looking. It wasn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t promising, especially how I was fantasizing how good this thing was going to be after discovering one of my favorite snack cakes morphed into a drinkable concoction found only at a glorified gas station (Yes, it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s also a restaurant, but it IS technically a gas station). <\/p>\n

Hotter than a freakin\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 supernova when it hits your tongue, the Butterscotch Krimpet Cupo\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ccino isn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t as yummy as a heavily sweetened pseudo coffee beverage can be. I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve had my fair share of hot chocolates and phony cappuccinos from Sheetz\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s rival, and they\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re always good. Yes, they have enough sugar to rot your teeth and gums, but they still have substance. The Tastykake Butterscotch Krimpet Cupo\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ccino would have been better if it wasn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t so thin. It had the potential to be creamy and good. <\/p>\n

Maybe it was running out and I got short changed. Since it’s only $1.39, I might be willing to give it another try if I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m ever near a Sheetz. Then again, I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll probably go for that fountain Diet Dr Pepper, or just splurge a dollar more and order one of their barista style coffees. Oh, excuse me, coffeez.<\/p>\n
