I've been seeing some of these as well in recent years.

The most memorable one was down in Louisville, where there was a gas station/bait shop/bar. The bartender sold me some whole-hog pork sausage at $2/lb. which he kept in a duffel bag in the ice box. Totally on the up-and-up.

Another is a well-known BBQ joint / convenience store out by Kansas City (I forget the name).

Most common, I think, is having a Subway inside the convenience store. I've seen Burger Kings as well.

It was delicious. I fried the hell out of it and used it for home-made Dan Dan Mian.


Nah, the nitrates take care of that.
