    .
    on my end end of the state if you want a Sheetz just drive 5 miles in any direction same with the Get Go and the new comer to the group Speedway . scrapple ohhhhh I do remember that from my youth , least once a week mom would make it .

    What I truely miss is when on vacation to the coast is honest to god good and FRESH seafood . Just can't get really good seafood away from the coast

    I think Moxie is better out of the bottle than the can. We can't find it in a bottle here - but can get it at Dietrich's market down in Kempton PA. We used to buy it by the case for a friend when we go down to Dixon's Gun Builders Fair in July

    We are starting to get WaWa's here in Florida. There are two near me. I used to pick up coke bottle to take to the little general store outside of Columbia Ky. when I was a kid. 2 or 3 bottles would get you a pretty nice piece of pickled baloney and some crackers.

    That's how it is here. I'm right at the crossover point. There is a Sheetz and a WaWa by my house. Head east and there are no more Sheetz. Head west and WaWas get thin real quick. I honestly try not to eat at either one of them. But when I travel to an area where all they have is 7elevens or smaller chains it sucks.

    I got hooked on lobster rolls on my last trip to see some grandkids in New Hampshire. Even McDonald's sell them, when they are in season. Wonderful stuff.

    Kayem hot dogs. I loved them back east. Natural casing, nice snap. Oh, and the sea food.

    Dunno what you's are all on about ...but its making me hungry anyway.
    Ha
    Might have to make a trip to the land of flags and anthems for an extended food fest.

    I can't get chips and chocolates here.

    I'm a chip and chocolate ,lollie 'oholic

    The wife says that the supermarket doesn't have that isle anymore.

    And what pitiful rations l may get ..well it disappears quick.

    But I have a secret source for such things and locations to dump the tel tale evidence.

    But alas my belly gives me away.

    She always knows.....how does she always know!!!

    Bahhh humbug

    Stone crab & conch. I feast on that stuff when I'm in the Keys or Bahamas. Conch fritters, conch salad, fried conch. Can't get enough. Darn good bait too.

    Conch fritters good stuff. And fresh king crab legs back when I was young and could eat a couple pounds of them. Good fresh seafood is just impossible to get around here unless you fill the truck with coolers and do a overnighter to Shreveport.

    Go chicken go gizzards and that spicy go sauce. That's only a two and a half hour trip to Kansas City so every few months I go get a couple boxes of those.

    Jonp - I tried the Garlic ice cream. Was good for the first couple of bites, then.....I'd happily trade all the garlic ice cream for a good cat fish fry house, with hush puppies and fried okra!!

    The Minnesota Garlic Festival is a short drive away, I always go to it. They've had Garlic Ice cream every year...Good Stuff.
    The festival is pretty popular these days, so it draws a large diverse crowd. But when it first started out, years ago, the only people there were rural veggie farmer types and urban hippie types, and let me tell you, that is just a crazy mix.
