To whoever has to stop in Afton, WY, DO NOT USE SINCLAIR! I was on a road trip with my family, and we made the mistake of stopping here to use the restroom and buy some snacks. The bathroom facilities were fine, other than the coat hanger was on the outside of the door where it is inaccessible for handbags. The real problem was with the food they had for sale. My younger cousin wanted to buy a pack of doughnuts; they looked kind of funny, so we checked the package for an expiration date. Not only was there no expiration date on the package, they had ripped it off of the box which held the doughnuts. Giving up on this package we tried a different one. Yet again no expiration date was on the package, I happened to look at the price tag which they had on the shelf, and finally found the expiration date. It read 7/22/14. It is currently 2015, these snacks were over a year old!
While my cousin and I were puzzling over the missing expiration dates on the doughnuts, my Uncle was buying a package of Zingers, for his son. We all met up back at the car and I informed my Uncle about the year old snacks they had in stock. Before letting anybody eat the Zingers we checked them over. On a side note, no doubt you have heard the running joke that Twinkies will survive the apocalypse, being of the same brand, we were really surprised to find the Zinger had this large, moldy black spot on it. It looked really nasty.
When my Uncle went inside to return the expired food, the manager and cashier on duty didn't seem all that surprised by the state of the food; and while my Uncle got a full refund, they made no move to remove the expired items from the shelf. At least by the time we left.
The long and short of it is that at least the snack portion of the store had items long past their expiration date. Please do yourself a favor and use the bathroom elsewhere, and never buy food from Sinclair, at least the one in Afton, WY. read more
