Popular food items include baked goods from the Schweetz bakery and create-your-own deli and breakfast sandwiches.

Navigating the Menu

Most Nutritious Option

The healthiest option at the Sheetz convenience store is the Wildwest Breakfast Flatbread. This flatbread is made with egg whites, cheese, and premium ham, and provides 290 calories and 10 grams of primarily monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fat. To make the flatbread into a vegetarian breakfast, you can order it without the ham (this also reduces the calorie and protein count).

Appz & Sidez

The appetizers and side dishes at Sheetz are a mix of mostly fried favorites, such as mozzarella sticks, fries, pretzels and pierogi.

✓ Bag of Fryz

A small portion of fries, served in a bag, contains 240 calories, 8g fat, 1g saturated fat, 39g carbohydrates, 3g protein, and 340mg sodium. Stick to the regular fries, without added toppings, and the smallest size to consume the fewest calories.

✗ Cinnamon Pretzel

The cinnamon pretzel, a cinnamon and sugar topped soft pretzel, is the highest-calorie "appz & sidez" option. It contains 600 calories, 17g fat, 2.5g saturated fat, 99g carbohydrates, 15g protein, and 720mg sodium (just for the pretzel; these nutrition facts do not include dipping sauce).

• Kickin' chicken sausage sandwich

Food Allergies and Safety

If you have food allergies, let the staff know prior to placing your order. Either on the Sheetz website, or on electronic kiosks in some stores, you can review nutrition information and an ingredient list for any menu items.

With limited space for preparing food, you could experience cross-contamination at a Sheetz store. Sheetz's website notes: "All foods, bakery items, and specialty beverages in our store are prepared in a shared environment which could cause exposure of any product to known food allergens. These would include, but are not limited to: peanuts, tree nuts, soy, wheat, egg, fish, and milk."
