Sheetz: What’s Vegetarian Editorial Review

Sheetz turns a gas station stop into a real vegetarian meal, because nearly everything is made to order. You build the sub, wrap, quesadilla, or salad yourself on a touchscreen, so you decide exactly what goes on and what stays off. That’s the whole trick, and it works better here than at almost any other convenience chain.

What to order at Sheetz

Start with a build-your-own sub, wrap, or burrito and load it with lettuce, tomato, onion, banana peppers, jalapenos, mushrooms, olives, and spinach, plus mustard, oil and vinegar, or hot sauce. Add provolone, American, or pepper jack cheese if you eat dairy. The MTO garden salad works the same way, skip the meat and build it yourself. A cheese quesadilla and the soft pretzel are both easy vegetarian picks, and mac ‘n cheese bites cover the fried-cheese craving.

What to watch out for

French fries, onion rings, and mozzarella sticks all share a fryer, so treat them as a check rather than an automatic yes. Mozzarella sticks may also use rennet cheese. To keep your order vegan, skip the cheese and mayo on your sub and confirm which bread has no dairy or egg. A loaded multigrain sub with oil and vinegar is the safest vegan build. When an item is marked as a check on the menu board, confirm it in the Sheetz app before you buy.
