Do gas stations double as convenience stores in USA? I ask as an european because here, snacks at gas stations usually carry a hefty markup in price and usually we go to minimarkets.

Yeah, most of them do double duty with a shop inside. The snacks and drinks usually have a high markup, but there aren't a lot of free-standing minimarkets except for a few 7-11s.

Then there's Wawa, which is the weird outlier. :) I think they sell gas as a side business. The inside is all about getting food.

Wawa, Sheetz, Buc-cee's, and QT, all kinda fill that roll. Grab and go restaurant with a gas station out front.

Ooh, I forgot about Sheetz. They used to have good breakfast sandwiches. I've never made it to a buc-ees, but I've heard good things.

Yeah often they are "minimarkets", as they are the only building around geared for consumers

This is amurica we drive our big ass engines to the convenience gas station to pay mark up prices like it ain’t no thang
