    We have a local chain of gas stations with 'The Market" food counters in them, they make really excellent deli sandwiches.

    Real talk, the best fried chicken i ever had was at a run down gas station on I-20 somewhere between Newton and Jackson. Maybe ot was the 20 hours i had already spent in the car leading up to that, but it was absolutely incredible.

    They have these giant pretzels. And hotdogs that have been on the heater for a week. Fine dining if you’re in the area.

      I travel far out of my way to avoid passing through that foul city. Alabama’s a way nicer state than most realize. That does not apply to Birmingham.

      Birmingham’s motto: “Still better than West Memphis!”

          Based on the endless gray clouds I’m going to say UK (and also that they call a gas station a “garage” despite no mechanics on duty).

            Believe it or not, Birmingham Alabama gets about twice as much rainfall a year than the original in the Midlands. Gulf coast states have the highest average precipitation in the US if you exclude Central and West Texas
