Nothing like some gas station chicken for dinner...

Is it healthy? No, is it very tasty? I would say yes indeed. There is a gas station/ convenience store close to here that is a very popular place for lunch with those working in the area, mostly blue collar types, and they have a fairly varied lunch menu, and most things they make are good. I don't go there for food very often, but it was that kind of a day. Do you have any gas station convenience store places near you that have good chicken?

We do have our share of gas station pizza, and a few that make and sell sandwiches. I can't think of any of them that sell fried chicken. We do have one place that makes and sells their own donuts every day, but I try very hard not to go inside! Way too tempting!

The ones that are affiliated with donut chains have the best coffee. There is one in the area that has donuts I think they make onsite, but I have never had one

@MarieCoyle I buy donuts when I feel the urge, but fortunately, it doesn't hit all that often. Now, if I could just say the same for chips!

In the last year or so, I have had one donut. Hard because I dearly love them, but they are just addictive!

This place had ice cream for awhile, but they decided it was too much work I think.

@DianneN I think they buy it already pre made...They just throw it in the fryer.

Well, this is your basic gas station convenience store type place, like a 7-11 type..it is actually Exxon that owns this though. I would say more station convience stores here have chicken then don't.

@snowy22315 I don't think that our corner stores like that offer chicken.

Ohhh, oh well I mean we are in the sticks so it is a good option but actually almost all the convenience stores sell some kind of food. You know for us fat butt Americans...lol.

@snowy22315 The convenient store here sells bread, cheese, cured meats, but nothing really interesting.

I love gas station chicken! One of the gas stations around here carried Krispy Krunch Chicken. Every now and then, I'll get a 4 piece tenders box after work.

They have that here too. In fact I think that is what they use at this place If they don't there is another one not too far away that has it.

@spiderdust I am sure it is tasty, but I don't think I would buy them.

I will get their chicken once or twice a year maybe. I will more typically get a Reuben there if I am going to get something, or even a pizza.

Where do you get your gas? Most stations nowadays have a store of some kind attached.

There isn't a Safeway close to me well there is one in Culpepper, but I talked about it before. I got sticker shock in there, and haven't been back. Years ago though I had donuts from Safeway at an event, they were probably the best ones I have ever had.

A Murphy gasoline station does sell fried chicken inside of their gasoline stations which is good tasting.

I have heard of a couple of other chains that supposedly have really good chicken at their stations.

@snowy22315 There are a few good chicken stores inside of service stations besides Murphy's but I have purchased food from a Shell or Exxon store.

I would think you would definitely have some there, maybe just not in your area.
