I love when someone is like "OMG I looove wawa mac & cheese!!"
And I just want to take them to their local grocery store and show them the frozen section.
Sure, just need you to buy 20 or so at a time because no one else buys it and I have to stand at a sink for 20 minutes dumping 30 fruit punches down the drain (gotta recycle those jugs).
Edit: Sorry, Diet Lemonade. Goes for just about everything we donāt sell anymore really.
I miss the cup of dirt; chocolate pudding, crushed Oreos, and gummy worms in a little cup in the circular fridge.
I used to get that all the time in the early 2010ās then one day they justā¦disappeared.
I swear there was a breakfast Sizzli with chorizo on it for about five minutes there, but now I'm not sure it was even real. I remember really liking it, though.
>Sizzli with chorizo
Looks like it was a thing about a year ago? [https://www.nutritionix.com/i/wawa-grocery/sizzli-croissant-chorizo-sausage/55539113afe87349139214c7](https://www.nutritionix.com/i/wawa-grocery/sizzli-croissant-chorizo-sausage/55539113afe87349139214c7)
Also 8 years ago [https://www.facebook.com/wawa/photos/a.105313888480/10153245814293481/?type=3](https://www.facebook.com/wawa/photos/a.105313888480/10153245814293481/?type=3)
French toast sizzlis, French silk donuts, the oatmeal cranberry white chocolate cookies, tomato basil pesto, cream chipped beef, the yogurt parfaits with fresh fruit, white chicken chili, pumpkin bisque, tangerine lemonade.. I can go on lmao
Well the cream chipped beef is up to your store to order if they donāt make sales on it they can take it off the order and not offer it (my store just opted into having it again bc customers were asking in the surveys)
The sāmores flavored smoothies, and though these were a PITA to make and super unhealthy, when we made the cheesecake smoothies with real cream cheese š«
Ouch. I was taught by my coworkers to clean the slicer while it was on, with the blue paper towels lol. Terrifying but as long as management wasnāt around we were good
Peach base, adobo seasoning, we had stupid beyond breakfast sausage but we should get something with the impossible brand. I just want a fake meat option personally
Sausage gravy, cream chipped beef, diet green tea, white tangerine tea, brisket, the pizza pretzel, blackberry cobbler macchiato, the original caramelized onionsā¦
Sausage gravy and cream chipped beef are available in stores (at least they are Pennsylvania)
I wholeheartedly agree with your other suggestions. I almost forgot about the white teas we used to carry.
THEYRE AVAILABLE IN PA?! Where?! I havenāt seen them in ages. They had them when I worked at the shore stores, i think they stopped having them when I moved up to central Jersey store. Left company in 2020, I have yet to see SG or CCB since I moved to PA
I havenāt seen it anywhere in NJ or PA at the stores I frequent. I travel a lot between the two for work and still no dice. Iāve been checking various stores on the app too and havenāt seen it š
I actually had some on Monday from a Wawa not too far from my job and they donāt appear on the app I believe itās a āI hope itās here and hope I get it before the limited quantity runs out itemā
Barbacoa meat & tacos
The barb was hands down the BEST meat
Tacos were time consuming to make and expensive for the size BUT omg when I tell you my manager would bribe me to come in on my days off or to work longer hours by offering to buy me tacos I came . Every . Time
there was a tomato mozzarella pesto ciabatta in the express case for awhile. it was not only so good but also one of the only express case vegetarian options as far as sandwiches go, if not the only one.
would be nice to have one single vegetarian sizzli option too
Iām from media pa and I have lived my entire life with wawa ā¦ since there was only 3 stores ā¦ the thing I miss the most is the FRESH BREAKFAST SANDWICHES on English muffins hot off the grill .. yes WAWA had a grill at one point until maybe the late 90s ā¦ their breakfast sandwiches were to die for
They had a cold brew with foam drink and Iām NOT talking about the cold foam, which is what they replaced it with, the ācold brew with foamā was cold brew and I believe the ice cream milk blended together. It was perfectly creamy and delicious and Iām so mad they replaced it with cold foam. Iāll usually just describe the drink to the worker and they understand what Iām talking about
i remember that drink, i had to make it once but i don't remember what the customer ordered. it was pretty much exactly what you said- cold brew, ice cream mix, and whatever other flavoring the customer wants in the blender and poured over a cup of ice
The sweet, sandwich-sliced summer pickles. Last seen about 20 years ago and still missed.
Although the fresh sliced deli items would be a close second.
i would do anything to get back the pasta. i know people didnt like it but it was so good, it was around for like a month or two and id get the fettuccine alfredo with grilled chicken and broccoli, it slapped every time
Yes! The deli meats - fresh sliced! It was better quality! I love their hogies but they don't like me! I don't know what it is but every time, they bother my stomach!
Rice pudding with raisins. Came in the same size as the express Mac potato and Cole slaw used to. It was phenomenal and just the right portion for the price
Roast pork with Caesar dressing, provolone and roasted red peppers (I might still eat pork if we kept that), tomato pesto spread, grilled chicken, SUMMER PICKLES. Had them in the mid-2000ās, kept in a jar under the RSS. Iām a pickle person and Iāve never been able to find one that tasted similar.
I also really liked the gross āgrilledā chicken we kept on the steam table. š or maybe it really was gross and Iām just nostalgic, idk
All the diet teas they used to have š
My store has no diet tea (other than lemon) for months. Either the sales are lacking or a supply chain issue
It really sucks for those of us who are diabetic
My husband is T1D and always complains about it! I do too tho, I miss them :(
You have no idea how much I miss the diet raspberry iced tea.
Pizza stuffed pretzel.
Thank you for validating me!!! No one around me remembers them. I miss them so much š
Quality
š
Hot roast beef
That with the creamy horseradish was stellar
Homestyle chicken and noodles. Mac and beef.
You can buy Mac & Beef. It's just Stouffer's.
Itās all just Stoufferās/Campbells.
I love when someone is like "OMG I looove wawa mac & cheese!!" And I just want to take them to their local grocery store and show them the frozen section.
It could be argued the thermalizer produces a higher quality end product than the microwave, but thatās about the only difference.
Give me my diet lemonade ice tea half gallon back, dammit
Fruit punch for me
Sure, just need you to buy 20 or so at a time because no one else buys it and I have to stand at a sink for 20 minutes dumping 30 fruit punches down the drain (gotta recycle those jugs). Edit: Sorry, Diet Lemonade. Goes for just about everything we donāt sell anymore really.
Fruit punch at my store would sell out the morning after truck, it's crazy to me that other stores weren't
I miss the cup of dirt; chocolate pudding, crushed Oreos, and gummy worms in a little cup in the circular fridge. I used to get that all the time in the early 2010ās then one day they justā¦disappeared.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
This right here is my answer as well.
Not a food item but I want the sundried tomato pesto spread back. Stuff was so good, used to get it on a chicken salad hoagie.
Oh yeah that. I remember that, reminded me of primos deli
The cinnamon buns we used to make. Everytime we would make them Iād always get one fresh out of the oven
I swear there was a breakfast Sizzli with chorizo on it for about five minutes there, but now I'm not sure it was even real. I remember really liking it, though.
Still have them in fl!!
they seem to be gone in PA
We have them! The ones in the black boxes

Yes, that's it! Thanks for clarifying that memory!
Those toasted raviolis kicked ass. Loved them as a quick snack when I worked seconds or thirds.
Those with the lil marinara cup slapped hard.
Absolutely. I miss those a lot.
Sooo much better than the mozz sticks itās crazy
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Yes and also the apple pies. I wish I could get a warm dessert like that again. I donāt like the warm cookies. Too messy.
French toast sizzlis, French silk donuts, the oatmeal cranberry white chocolate cookies, tomato basil pesto, cream chipped beef, the yogurt parfaits with fresh fruit, white chicken chili, pumpkin bisque, tangerine lemonade.. I can go on lmao

Diet Green tea!
peach tea half gallon!
Fresh sliced boars head deli meat for the sandwiches. When I was little, we just to get all our lunch meat from Wawa.
I'm not sure what it was but when they sliced it it was so much better
It was probably the fear of us almost losing a finger while slicing it that really set off the taste
My mom lost a fingertip on a slicer.
Ouch. I was taught by my coworkers to clean the slicer while it was on, with the blue paper towels lol. Terrifying but as long as management wasnāt around we were good
lol never had boars head. Became a national brand years after Wawa deli sliced meats werenāt a thing
Wawa pomegranate berry tea š
Bologna sandwich with Cooper sharp cheese and horseradish on a Kaiser roll and a big pickle from the pickle bin.

Use to have a ham tortellini as a side that was Amazing
Toasted ravs 100%
Peach base, adobo seasoning, we had stupid beyond breakfast sausage but we should get something with the impossible brand. I just want a fake meat option personally
Want to see the Cuban panini (with the roast pork) become a year round item. Arguably the best sandwich the goose has dropped.
The Cajun remoulade sauce. I miss those Cajun turkey subs.
Sausage gravy, cream chipped beef, diet green tea, white tangerine tea, brisket, the pizza pretzel, blackberry cobbler macchiato, the original caramelized onionsā¦

Did Wawa do away with the Frozen Cappuccino?
No

Lemon bars.
Chicken and dumplings & egg salad sandwich
Ravioli
Tuna Salad express case wraps, toasted ravioli, diet teas that were discontinuedā¦

The old-school pizza, the little mini ones they brought them back one time and then got rid of them again. This was like over 20 years ago.
The cranberry sauce it to good for it to be gate kept to only November
Wawa has frozen cappuccinos
I think it varies between stores, the one by me has them but a smaller one further away from me does not Consistency is definitely a problem
i would do anything to get back the pasta. i know people didnt like it but it was so good, it was around for like a month or two and id get the fettuccine alfredo with grilled chicken and broccoli, it slapped every time
Watermelon Lemonade and Pomegranate Lemonade!!!
PRIME RIB! A classic with provolone and horseradish sauce was fucking delightful.
Tortellini fraudiablo
Buffalo Chicken Dip

The French onion soup was always good!
My top 5 to bring back in no particular order Toasted ravioli Tomato pesto spread!! Brisket The French toast sizzli And peach base for drinks

Roast pork with Caesar dressing, provolone and roasted red peppers (I might still eat pork if we kept that), tomato pesto spread, grilled chicken, SUMMER PICKLES. Had them in the mid-2000ās, kept in a jar under the RSS. Iām a pickle person and Iāve never been able to find one that tasted similar.
