Wawa Is America's No 1 Sandwich Shop, New Survey Says

The upcoming documentary "Sheetz Vs. Wawa" may as well not even come out, because a new survey of American consumers showed Wawa is the nation's top sandwich shop.

Market Force Information conducted its annual survey, asking more than 11,500 Americans what their favorite burger, sandwich, Mexican, pizza, and chicken brands are.

And for the first time ever, Wawa was the No. 1 sandwich spot on the list.

Market Force Information asked participants to rate their satisfaction with their most recent quick-service experience, and their likelihood to refer that restaurant to others.
