tons of travel centers have McDonald's and Taco Bell inside them, so them "having food" is not a new idea


reducing it down to "they have food" is pretty ignorant. By your rationale, why go eat at Ruth's Chris, McDonald's has food too.

Why cook gumbo, potato chips is food too.

I'm sorry you don't like flavor. I'm sorry you don't like things a little bit better than the rest. Buccees is a large gas station that is objectively better than the rest. If you want to wallow in your own utopia of "why try it's all the same", then have fun i guess.

People like nice things. If we didn't, we wouldn't seek them out. If you don't, then by all means go live on the street.

Workman's Travel Center in Lowell, Arkansas has all that exact stuff
has better food, places to sit, and also clean bathrooms but is not advertised like Buccees. Do they have workmanship outside of Arky? I have stopped at several in Arky and they are very solid.

Then going to a buccee's is not for you, friend.

Kinda weird to flex hanging out a gas station. Using your logic


I'm not making brag posts about how "i can get in and out of x store quicker". That is strange behavior. You know what buccees is. We know what buccees is. It's a tourist shop/gas station that has a large variety of snacks/food/souvenirs often placed along roadways used for long stretches of driving. I go to it on our way back from road trips. Candied pecans, jerky, candy and we're set for a long drive. I'm not raw-dogging a 10 hour drive because you don't understand why buccee's exists.

Even Frankenstein himself wouldn't eat this frankenfood.

Plenty of soy in there for the soyboys too.

Good point, but so what happens when Bass Pro adds in gas pumps and BBQ sandwiches and Little Debbies? And a hybrid Taco Bell/McDonalds in it?

Maybe 10 or 20 hotel rooms in it?

I like to stop for cheap gas. A clean toilet and $150 in snacks for the road.

I am stopping. I actually stop at the Bass Pro in Little Rock sometimes while driving through because bathrooms are clean and I can get snacks.
But now there will be a Buccees in Benton

there's one in Rudy, Arkansas, north of Alma


I haven't traveled much in a while so I'm not sure but I'll bet there are more

I've known a lot of truckers and they LOVE the BBQ at Workman's
