The dollar soft drinks are great - in the summer I walk a lot, and there is a McDonalds on one of my walking routes, and I will stop in and get a diet coke.
It has been a long time since I bought food in one, I think it would have been a grilled cheese with apple slices (yes, a happy meal) when we stopped out of loo-break / hunger break necessity on a long road journey.
