Something I discovered- perfect driving food

Most of you know that I am commuting from Ogden to Salt Lake City nearly every evening to see my hospitalized spouse. Which means I've been eating too much junk food, or too late at night and drinking coffee in the hours I normally reserve for drinking beer.

One of the things that this routine of driving has taught me is that 7-Eleven offers the best cheap coffee readily available. Sure, Starbucks or Grounds For Coffee has real lattes and Grounds For Coffee even has the butterscotch syrup I like. But 7-Eleven has fresh coffee all the time, a tolerable steamed milk substitute in the cappuchino machine and decent, reusable cups.

But I just discovered last night the best thing at 7-Eleven- the Taquitos! I had two, for 2 bucks and they were quite tasty. I purchased one of the Jalapeno and Cream Cheese and one of the Monterey Jack cheese and chicken versions. One of the reasons I liked these tasty food sticks was because they are easily consumable using one hand, while driving and without making a mess all over my shirt.

So there it is- I admit I'm a 7-Eleven customer. And happy about it!
