If it helps any, they're NOT quite as seasoned as the ones you get in the regular mix. They're more of a plain rye chip, or at least were on the last occasion I got them 47 seconds ago and then 1121 seconds prior to that, your t..ti..time they are. Less, seasoned. Less cultivated, you...wouldn't understand ----------------

First I head to the bathroom, do my business, and wash my hands. Then I get a paper towel to dry my hands and then fold it up and pocket it. Now I have a moist towelette for later. In my old heavy carb days I would get 2 bottles of Gatorade, preferring blue frost (I am likely hung over at the start). I'd get a big bag of spicy nacho Doritos and two buffalo chicken rollerbites in a paper sleeve. In my low carb style of today I get a zero sugar added Muscle Milk (I stopped drinking so no hangover), two hot dogs in a sleeve, and Tom's hot pork rinds.

Since I'm the one driving, I always go for some form of caffeine. In cold/cool weather, my standby is coffee, black. But in the summer, I'll go for something cool. If they have a Stok dispenser, I'll do that. Otherwise, a bottled Starbucks drink from the cooler. Then, some kind of food ranging from pastry to candy bar. Since I'm driving, I don't want something messy, so something like muffins are right out. If I'm in the mood for candy, it's a Snickers bar. Sometimes it's a cereal bar like Golden Grams or Lucky Charms. But lately my convenience store junk food of choice is something from Steve's Snacks in Maine (https://www.stevessnacks.com/). Their whoopie pies are all amazing, but maple is my favorite and in VT the variety they put in stores is maple, chocolate, red velvet, and double chocolate. However, the closer you are to their HQ in Maine, you'll see other varieties. Last year in Conway, NH I tried the orange and loved it. I've been mildly tempted to place an order to try the lemon and coconut. But what they don't show on their web site is another sandwich they make consisting of two cookies with the same whoopie pie filling inbetween. Holy hell thee are awesome and I've had both the varieties that I've seen: chocolate chip and oatmeal/raisin. The former is good, but can be crumbly. The latter is not crumbly at all and amazing. I could probably mainline them. That's usually it for my typically 6 hour drive to visit my in laws.

I think I posted this in another thread, maybe the soda one? But the best drink strat for a gas station/convenience store is: Grab the stupid huge bigass cup 2-4 "airplane bottles" of single serve liquor. The place I go to always has cheap Jim Beam Devil's Cut (90 proof). Covertly pour them into the bigass cup and look over your shoulder at the cashier like they are an FBI informant. Squirt of vanilla, either from the soda fountain or the coffee station. Fill your bigass cup with 1/3 ice. Fill the rest with your choice of Coke, Dr. Pepper, or Root Beer. That's a lot of drunk, and very palatable, for the price!!

First of all, as an alcoholic, lmao forever at '2 airplane bottles/shots' and the words "That's a lotta drunk" used together. If I was still actively drinking 2-4 of those little bottles would make a nice appetizer before I decided to get a slight buzz. Secondly, never put vanilla syrup in anything that poo poo is loving disgusting. If anything, here, maybe mix sprite/7-up with a lime slushie to get a fiz one going, or just straight up do cherry coke in your cup. Thirdly, don't loving do this if you're driving, c'mon. In short literally all of that is an awful and stupid way to do what you're suggesting. ----------------

It is fine for the navigator to get a good buzz, it keeps them calm while doing their job on a road trip. im not being sarcastic at all. when the driver starts flipping out about what turn to make or what exit/onramp to take, a calm cool navigator is essential Like Maverick and Goose

SilvergunSuperman posted:It's considered no different than open liquor in public here, always be car beerin' as a passenger. Genuinely progressive attitude for the 1950s! And admirable even ignoring a) my grandfather's size, b) that he spent weekends drinking so he had a high tolerance, and c) that it's doubtful that even 1950s Quebec beer was significantly higher in ABV than American, much less modern "craft" beers. I'd bet money that my grandfather would have no problem downing a six pack from Montreal to Addison county, Vermont without impairment. I'm not sure what the smart move would have been at that point. If the friend passed the beer to the backseat, surely my grandmother would have dutifully handed my grandfather another bottle as he asked for one. If the friend got out of the car with the intention of putting them in the trunk, I could see my grandfather getting pissed and just driving off. The move that was made was this: once my grandfather started the driving in earnest, the friend, shouted, "I said, we're not going to drink on the drive home!" and tossed the beer out the open window of the moving car. My grandmother put her head on her hand. Grandpa finished his lone beer and completed the remaining several hour drive in utter silence. Once they got to his friends house, grandpa got out, courteously opened the passenger door, pulled his friend out, and beat the poo poo out of him for throwing out his beer.

mmm, if its gonna be a few hours and multiple people like any good road trip I'm gonna say -a few soda bottles -couple of waters or juice -big beef jerky bag or 2 -some kind of chip snack (pringles, doritos, etc) -maybe some hot food like a taquito/pizza slice/one of those chicken burgers like am-pm has -something sweet, depends on the mood if its fruity or chocolatey

One time I was at a Flying J that was just over the Grapevine and I could have sworn the dude at the urinal next to me was Snoop Dogg. It probably wasn't. Like 8 years later I bought a grapefruit Topo Chico at that same Flying J. Do what you will with that info.

No, listen, my dudes Honey buns Especially on those cold morning you have the defroster running, pop those bad boys on the dash to get 'em hot, they're loving delicious. Also, energy drinks because it's too goddamn early - I recommend a random flavor of 5 Hour Energy washed down with a Full Throttle Blue Agave. Trail mix and sunflower seeds. Gatoraide cool blue and strawberry. A couple of Zero bars for a pick-me-up later. Pack of wet wipes, you'll be grateful later when you have to poo poo and the gas station/restaurant you pick only has John Wayne toilet paper - it's rough, it's tough, it doesn't take poo poo off no one. Everyone piss now, we got 900 miles to go and I ain't stopping in every town.

Chewy candy is crucial. LaffyTaffy (Ideally you have a passenger to read the jokes for you), maybe something like Starburst, or if I'm lucky and its available, BitOHoney. Other than that, jerky, smokes, and the biggest water bottle they have.

I don't think we have a candy bar thread, but lots of people would like Zero bars if they knew WTF it is. It is a grandpa Snickers that was invented in 1920. It has all the Snickers parts, but each one is a little different from a regular Snickers. If you like Snickers you will almost surely enjoy a Zero.
