Does anyone ever brag about Shipley's donuts? If so, add that to the list, not that good.

Kolaches in general are a legit brag.

for a state that prides itself on BBQ, Texas is pretty underwhelming in general

Help me understand this…..Texans brag about a fast-food chain that is located in numerous states outside of their own? Is that what its come to?

HQ and origin is Corpus

ETA: but they do brag about the most outlandish things, and as I posted earlier, they don't let facts get in the way of making up lore

You show me another gas station where I can always find a stall that hasn't even been used since it's last cleaning. They probably have the best public bathrooms on the planet, and gas stations are notorious for having the worst. The awesome snacks and drinks are just a bonus.

who the frick brags about buccees? I was born in houston and have lived and worked all over this state and have never come across a single conversation in which a person bragged about buccees. I actually thought they were a regional chain until this thread, didnt really realize they were only in texas.

like Shiner, and buy a lot of it but I find more skunky beers from them than I should. Can't even think of another brand that I can recall getting a skunky or two mixed in.


Same here. Seems like it has gotten worse too.

Revolver out of Ft Worth is quickly replacing it for me.

Can I just point out that no one in this thread knows how to spell Buc-ee's? You may continue with your bitching and moaning now.

Perhaps because it originated in Texas and only recently expanded outward?

There is a Whataburger in BR in Siegen Marketplace. Among fast food fare, it is high quality. But I can certainly get better hamburgers at many a sit down restaurant in town.

In some crazy scheme to make a buck, they expanded outside of Corpus Christi. Nuts I know.

And I bought Slap Ya Mama in Vista, CA over Christmas, so we Louisianans can clearly no longer claim it.
