Slurpee
When you think of 7-Eleven, the first thing that comes to mind is the Slurpee. It's the one item that separates 7-Eleven from its convenience store competition. The Slurpee, which got its name from the sound it makes when you suck it through a straw, has been a 7-Eleven mainstay since 1966. It comes in dozens of flavors, from the fan-favorite Coca-Cola to bizarre concoctions like Faygo Cotton Candy, but you should think twice before you grab a cup and pull on the lever of your local 7-Eleven's Slurpee machine.
You're probably aware that a Slurpee isn't exactly in the same league as a superfood smoothie, but these airy and frozen treats are calorie and sugar bombs. According to Reader's Digest, a 44-ounce Dr Pepper Slurpee contains a whopping 825 calories. Slurpees are also loaded with preservatives and caffeine, and the machines are said to have plenty of mold in them.
Buffalo chicken roller
The Buffalo chicken roller isn't offered at all 7-Eleven locations, but just in case it's at a store near you, avoid it. It did not pass this Buffalo chicken aficionado's taste test. Described by Brand Eating as a gigantic Burger King chicken fry, the Buffalo chicken roller is like a spicy chicken fry but much drier and denser. It could definitely use some more heat as well.
It won't wreck your day if you're counting calories (it only has 190), but it's extremely processed (a Buffalo chicken roller does not appear in nature) and loaded with sodium. If you do want Buffalo chicken and you don't mind throwing away the bones, 7-Eleven actually has pretty decent Buffalo chicken wings, and unlike the Buffalo chicken roller, most 7-Eleven locations always carry them.
Big Gulp fountain sodas
Like the Slurpee, the Big Gulp is another product that 7-Eleven is known for. According to the company's corporate website, the convenience store chain sells an astonishing 45 million gallons of fountain soda a year. That's enough soda to properly fill 68 Olympic-sized swimming pools. If you're looking for more soda for your money, getting a fountain drink is certainly the way to go (unless you live in a place like Philadelphia where soda is taxed by the ounce), but how often do you think the machines are cleaned? Like Slurpee machines, fountain soda dispensers are breeding grounds for mold and all sorts of nasty creatures.
