Pennsylvania’s decades-long Sheetz or Wawa debate has latched on to Democratic Vice President nominee Tim Walz, writes Bill Shannon for YourErie.

Walz, current governor of Minnesota, was having breakfast Monday with Pennsylvania delegates when the question came up about which convenience store is better, according to Delaware Online.

Walz admitted stopping at a Sheetz while in Pennsylvania, eliciting some boos from Wawa fans.

But Walz refused to wade into the Sheetz/Wawa battle, sidestepping the issue completely.

“Here’s my thing – Kwik Trip. In the Midwest, it’s Kwik Trip.”

Kwik Trip has slightly more stores than Sheetz and slightly less than Wawa.  It has about 800 stores in Minnesota and other states, just under the nearly 1,000 stores Wawa currently runs.
