When I moved from Winnipeg back to the greater Toronto area, it was quite the adjustment. I'm not referring to weather. It was more seeing a 7-Eleven store fairly regularly in Winnipeg, in the Slurpee capital of Canada, to losing the only one in Markham.
My closest 7-Eleven store is in Pickering. It's not exactly close.
Last night, I was driving home after having dinner. Rutherford Road has a couple of 7-Eleven stores that are fairly close to each other. There's one west of highway 400. The other one is this one just east of Keele Street.
I tend to visit the one by highway 400 often. It's because it's the first store that I see heading home.
Yesterday, I decided to check out this store. I'm glad that I did.
This store has a gas station. I didn't need to fuel my car. The station looked clean.
I backed my car into a parking spot near the store. I then went inside.
This store has 7-Eleven plushies on keychains. They were adorable.
I needed to get some drinks. I ended up getting a couple of Fuze iced teas. I saw mango and pineapple. This flavour was new to me.
All 7-Eleven locations in Canada are supposed to have Japanese-style egg sandwiches. I saw signs saying that it had arrived in Canada. This store looked like it had run out of these sandwiches.
There were various wraps and submarine sandwiches. They looked yummy.
It was cool seeing iced matcha lattes and more. It's convenient to grab what you want and go.
Apparently, there are breakfast sandwiches every day. I'd like to try one.
As a fruit lover, I was pleased to see oranges, bananas, and apples. It was cool seeing lemons, too.
This store has two Slurpee machines. I was tempted to get one. I passed, as I was about to purchase two bottles of Fuze.
The hot foods looked amazing. I was tempted to get a hot dog. What caught my attention was seeing what looked like sausage rolls in front of the potato wedge sign.
I helped myself to a warm beef sausage roll. This place didn't have tongs. I grabbed one with my hand and placed it in a paper bag.
I got a helpful, nice woman at the checkout. She scanned my 7Rewards barcode and then my items. I paid with a credit card. Done!
She wished me a great day. I reciprocated and left with my goodies.
I'm currently drinking my Fuze mango and pineapple iced tea. It's pretty good. It's a nice change from the other flavours that I get.
The beef sausage roll was decent. It was long and had a lot of beef sausage filling. The exterior had some flakiness to it, but it wasn't super flaky that my car was a mess.
It was the best snack as I drove home. I'd get it again.
I'm glad that I stopped by. I hope to do it again whenever I'm driving along Rutherford again.
