Petrol station food.
Discussion
Really really bad for long term driving IMO. They can't sell beer, but they can sell this crap which is not without it's hazzards.
OK, crisps and chocolate might work well for 20 minutes, but after that, (especially a big bag of crisps
) The heavy, tired, feel like shit, kicks in. Most of the sandwiches are white bread, and/or mayo laden, same problem.
Shouldn't petrol stations examine the efect of their merchandise, and adapt accordingly?

you can buy litre cans of lager ffs 
they are mostly crap aren't they? german ones are the worst (or the wurst 
) cold frikadelle anyone?
some dutch ones are ok, esso often have a delifrance franchise in there that will make up fresh sarnies, they usually have those dutch lift-the-flap warm unrecognisable meat things too though
lots of places are doing little bags of apple chunks and stuff now too, which is nice
btw, why do they only do big-pack crisps?

We went to Linconshire last year and got food poisoning from a garage pre-packed chicken sandwich 
That was the mostI have encountered. Added: and YES it was in date from a major chain as well.

A guy I know suffered a similar fate a few years back - as a result of a petrol station chicken sandwich.
The police stopped his car as he was driving erratically. He ended up in hospital where they told him that had he not been in good physical shape (he had come out of the 'paras' two years previously) he may have been 'brown bread'. He complained to the petrol company who unsuprisingly did not accept responsibility but they did send him a voucher for a couple of quid to buy another sarny. Which was nice...

I lost 1/2 stone in approx 72 hours. I took me ages to put the weight back on again.
After having the emergancy response, paramedic and ambulance here they could not take me because I had uncontrollable diarrhea. So they sat with me for 2 hours until I stablised.
I am so, so sorry but-
did they sit holding your hand on the bog?
