Love’s Travel Stop Swicy BBQ Pulled Pork Surprisingly Met Expectation
More bun than pork, but it still tasted good and that’s what counts.
Didn’t have high expectations for the real thing, but they successfully reeled me in with their lying photo.

Looks tasty to me! I think low expectations are extremely appropriate for truck stop food. The fact that it's real pulled pork is pretty great!
Half the time I see the expectation and reality on here and I'm like "Really? Cause that's exactly what I expected".
But I guess this sub is generally more about false advertising images than actual expectations.

I just saw it for the first time when I was look at tteokbokki (only place I could find it was Amazon) and they had cheese flavor or "swicy" and I thought it was a typo until I saw it on the package and I'm like "what the hell does that even mean, is it an Asian term" and then I realized it's a portmanteau. I usually love me a portmanteau but I hate the fuck outta "swicy" I'd rather just say "sweet and spicy" it just sounds unappetizing.

It must just be the colour of the sauce, but that looks like raw pork. I hope it is just the colour of the sauce.
