    I like the Chinese food too. When you get stuck in the Northeast, often times that's the only option is doordash Chinese. I'm partial to that spicy sesame chicken
     
    TravR1 Thanks this.

    I've never eaten a burrito on the road and NOT expected to have my digestive tract completely purge through my backside the next morning. That's why I avoid burritos on the road.

    Well we are all different. And from what I understand our digestive tracts all handle foods differently.

    But normally I enjoy a burrito. Some places do a fine job. Especially the breakfast burritos, without the sausage. Because in the morning a breakfast burrito is quick and easy and if you are anything like me, I don't want the hassle in the morning. A quick hand-held meal is always best with some coffee. So take the eggs, bacon, and potatoes, and wrap it all in a tortilla so I can hold it and I'm good to go.

    Dinner, after my work is done, that's when I like having everything on a plate.

    I like how $10 will get you enough for 2 meals. They usually send you a lot. You just have to order Chinese responsibly. Then you just give your driver a tip on top of that. The Sesame chicken is really good too. I always get stuck in NY with their extra high living costs on everything. I like those signs where they tell us to not idle for more than 5 minutes and my truck tells me its like 5 degrees outside. It is currently 13 in Buffalo where I sometimes have to park.

    That's a separate issue though. Back to that burrito. If you like Chili like me, you wont get it ordering that. Don't do it. AVOID! It's better just to get a corn dog and put some mustard on it.

    Also the milk sold at truck stop sometimes is sour even if the date is good. Take a small sip first just to make sure. Because often it's SOUR anyway and if you drink a lot before realizing, it will rot your gut completely.

    Gut rot.
