Hands down, Puff Cheezelets. As my dad says, “They spell “cheese” with a Z so they’re not legally bound to use real cheese.” I got a big bag for 70 cents, and I’m probably still digesting them. Puff Cheezelets are these little packing peanuts covered by a neon orange substance that in no way resembles cheese. As soon as you swallow them, they settle in your large intestine and take up permanent residence.
I noticed that they’re now selling the foul things in grocery stores now. God help us.
Moon pie. Nuff’ said.

I ate a hot dog from the Mobil Mart once.
It stayed with me for quite a while.
I never ate another.
This wasn’t at a gas station, but next to one. I was driving from Memphis to Tupelo and hadn’t eaten lunch. At Popeyes I got some chicken strips, which tasted like they had been frying since the night before. And the fries had been in there with them.
Well, the label said it was a burrito.
Talk about false advertising.
A jalepeno hotdog. Yuk.
This thread reminds me of an episode of “Malcolm in the Middle” where the older brother gets food poisoning on the way to Mardi Gras, and his buddy says “Dude, I told you not to eat gas station sushi…”

As a defender of the moonpie*, I have to suggest microwaving it for 5 sec**. No more. No less. Try the vanilla ones!

I’ve had a lifelong affinity for the 25 cent Oatmeal Creme Pies, my first memories of which are from walking to a little long-since-gone gas station a few houses down from my grandmother’s house and buying one with my OWN money (musta been 4 or so).
I am using this line IRL.
Has nobody else ever dared to eat one of those pink pickled eggs?
What’s the matter with you people?
O.K., this might not qualify because it wasn’t intended to be gross (I assume the pufflets and the burritos are intended to be that way). About fifteen years ago, I bought a cup of coffee at a gas station and added a lot of creamer. This was back when those flavored creamers were all the rage. Anyway, I got to the end of the coffee and tipped the cup up to get the last few drops and saw this gob of black slime sort of rolling its way rapidly toward my mouth. I couldn’t respond in time; the blob went into my mouth and down my throat. Ughhhghhhshivergh. It still makes me sick to remember. I assume that one of the the “creamers” had somehow gome terribly wrong.
I bought a Reeses peanutbutter cup from a gas station only to find it had maggots crawling in it when I opened it up.
I’ll never eat one of those things again and i used to lovem too.
A Stuckey’s Pecan Log.
It seemed like a good idea at the time…
Didja ever eat one of those frozen “burgers” that you pop in the microwave? I have eaten, I think, every variety of sandwich in this family, including the “chicken”, “steak”, and “rib” incarnations. I am fairly certain they are all made of thye same stuff.

I too have sampled the local gas station’s “heat lamped mystery burger”. I (barely) lived to tell about it.
The exact same thing happened to me, except that it was a Bit O’ Honey candy bar. I almost ate it, too. Thank god my friend noticed what I was about to put in my mouth.
One time me and a couple buddies decided to go tubing at Ichetucknee Springs in Florida. It’s a really cool place to go, you rent an inner tube and float for a couple hours down a lazy springwater river (cold, but clear). Being young bucks, we all decided to bring some “refreshments”, but knowing that there was probably a guard there, we decided to empty a good part of a two-liter coke and replace it with Wild Turkey. We drank plenty of it on the 2-hour drive up there. Then we were hungry and decided to stop and grab some chow before parking. We stopped at a little low-class 7-11 on the corner. Everybody got a frozen pizza (probably 12" in diameter each), paid for them, got in the car, and started eating. FROZEN. Still frozen. When we realized it we thought about going in and microwaving them, but realized we probably wouldn’t be able to do it, certainly not with straight faces, so we finished them off in the car. I’ll never forget that yummy frozen cardboard flavor mixed with Wild Turkey & Coke.
This summer, My family went to California. Las Vegas is not far, so we went to Vegas for two days. On the way there we stpooed at this run down “gas station” for a bathroom break. My mother decided to but a bag of something that looked like peanuts. I hate peanuts, sso I didnt eat any, but everyone else did. I was told they have thrown up better tasting food.
I bought a package of butter tarts from Mac’s. The first one was pretty good. I bit into the second one, and had something hard and crunchy in my mouth. I spit it into my hand to find…
A toenail clipping. I barely could keep my cookies down.
I’ve never eaten a butter tart since.
