Cheddars. Sadly they don't sell them in Germany.

Ooo, so close. We were looking for Andy Capp's Hot Fries! Even better than the cheddar variety...
To each their own! I am a wuss. ;)
They're honestly not crazy-spicy, just a good flavor!
I'll have to try them the next time I'm at the gas station then!
Andy Capp use to have a version called “salsa fires” and they were the superior Andy Capp fry. But alas, they discontinued them many years ago.
Hey, I remember salsa fries! Those were really good, but I still prefer the Hot Fries...
I can't find those here anymore, but they were AMAZING. They're insanely expensive on Amazon.
Those are so yummy!
When we road trip to breweries my gal makes up a "Snacklebox".
Amazing. Props to your gal!
She's a keeper. She brought up her 3 adult girls essentially on her own. Dick of a dad.
Slim Jim’s. Don’t tell me what the real ingredients are; I don’t want to know. Leave me with this one last glimmer of happiness in my life.
My favorite snack is also Value Size!
Jerky. Lasts a little while, protein actually sticks around for the food/filling functionality of eating snacks
Cheddar cheese pretzel is my Combos pick every time
it aint a road trip without combos

Roasted unsalted cashews, pre-rinsed grapes off the vines. Shelled pistachios. Blueberries, if they don't have to sit in a hot car.
I can't be trusted around shelled pistachios. I will eat myself sick in no time.
Combos
Specifically pizza pretzel
OK, but what about pepperoni pizza flavor?
Heck yeah, my favorite flavor of Combos!
The only correct answer besides Twizzlers and sunflower seeds.
I'm gonna go against the grain and declare for team Cheddar Pretzel tho!
Holy shit this picture just brought back decades old nostalgia.
Trolli sour gummy worms.
Love those!
A good beef jerky is my go-to. Normally I'm a chocoholic, but chocolate isn't great as a road trip snack.
Jerky, mixed nuts, and M&Ms.
Salted sunflower seeds
Popcorn, preferably white cheddar.
Exclusively white cheddar.
Fucking love cornnuts
Garden Salsa Sun Chips.
cereal. so many textures to choose from!
capt crunch is a clear fav though
If Andy Capp actually had his own line of pub crisps like this mock up it would be hilarious, I'd have to try them 😂
I still read Andy Capp from time to time, used to see him in the Mirror but now I get him online!
This is real! Do they not have them where you are from?
Pringles, licorice (stick variety like nibs) and some nuts usually cashews
Mmm pringles. original or do you have a preferred flavor?
Usually sour cream and onion is my go too
Ahh, the good old days, when a wife beating drunk was next to Dennis the Menace on every comic page.

The andy capp's are absolutely correct. Good girl
But even above that, for me it's specifically shredded beef jerky. Cheap, sits nicely in the car door handle, don't have to look to take a hit, can be enjoyed with coffee, 4 or 5 usually last the whole 16 hours. Can't be beaten.
I didn't know they made anything but hot fries.
Too messy for me. I'm a gummy bears and red bull car tripper.
Jerky and extra toasty cheez its.
Funyuns, donut sticks, and pecan twirls.
Funyuns are straight up addictive.
For long trips, inevitably I'll down at least one coconut Red Bull and a packet of mini donuts. A concha if they have one of those stands with Bimbo pastries and sweets.
ooo one time i had some really buttery pretzel twists(?) idk the name or brand but they were so yummy
Gotta be Dot's! If they were the well-seasoned type.
