I will sometimes do huge 24 hour stints (there are 2 of us) and having a
massive number of Starbucks Double Shots next to me is like rule number one.
They don't taste the greatest and they have more calories than I want but they
taste a far sight better than some of the shit coffee I've had from interstate
gas stations and truck stops. Seriously, I don't know what the deal is with
truck stops, I've eaten at a few and the food was always pretty bad.

I like to have crunchy things like carrot sticks to chomp on while I'm
driving, cheese and crackers if I have someone to assemble them while I'm
driving, and peanut m&m's. I eat more of the things I don't eat at home like
candy and such.
