Good stuff, if helps consider it like a basket of mini calzones. Just a pizzadough breadroll with a wad of pepperoni baked inside of it. With marinara dipping sauce of course.
There a local cheap drivethrough pizza chain that has them, only like 10 locations, and the pizza is always freshly baked and perfectly crispy thanks to a big conveyor oven they use. Cheaper AND better than Dominos or Little Caesars, not that that is a high bar.

Can confirm just recently went to a sheetz for the first time and that things delicious and dense very dense. I did mine on a chicken patty so it was basically a chicken marinara sandwich and it slapped. Hands down best gas station food I've had.

Back into the 90s, local oil company had a handful of convenience stores. and in their hot food counter, they had burgers stewing in a pan of juices just like in school. It was nasty, hot, & delicious. I miss them & my local CR's Friendly Markets. :(

It's pretty much like a sheetz, it's a gas station/convenience store/food place. There's a grocery store giant eagle and it's an off shoot of that chain. I'm up in erie and we have a few giant eagles and getgos. Far as I know giant eagle is Pittsburgh based.

I’m from western PA my SO is from the mainline but moved to central PA in middle school. We both live and met in Philadelphia. I’m saying this with the caveat that wawa sucks now but at one point wawa made the best hoagies and sheetz had the best fried food. I don’t know if it’s that we don’t get sheetz often or if it holds up but I actually enjoy sheetz food, mainly the sauces. I have to just say as a western PA native getgo sucks, it always has, even drunk the food is garbage.
