Creators note:
Hello, my name is Zackary Smigel. I've been creating YouTube videos since I was a kid. I started YouTube full-time about five years ago. You might have seen me from Real Estate License Wizard, where I obtained 60,000 subscribers and over 5 million channel views. I have since left that channel for creative pursuits, and this is my first crack at starting something new. I'd appreciate a like and subscribe if this content interests you and I captured your attention for even just a few moments.
On a secondary note, wow. This video was an undertaking. I can't emphasize how hard I worked on this one and boy was it fun. I learned a lot and always am continuing to try and improve my craft. Don't worry I am not quitting the other style videos, but I want to mix in crazy things like this every once in awhile. I really hope you all enjoy!
Thanks so much for watching,
Zackary Smigel

I have no idea how this video will perform. It was definitely experimental on my part, but I'm happy I did it! I learned a lot, and hopefully, you do too after watching. Rest assured I'm not ditching my typical topics or style but as I mentioned before I want to blend internet culture and social science. I hope you all enjoy.

Time to do 30 days on Wawa to truly have insight on the war
-
As a blue collar worker, I can confirm I have yet to find an end to this challenge in the last two years.
-
sheets, 4am, drunks, and blue collar workers such a dynamic atmosphere
-
Your genuine excitement when fresh bananas were on the shelves on day 9 was one of the most wholesome and hilarious things I've seen on YT in ages. I've never heard of Sheetz, nor your channel before, now I'm a fan of both!
-
oh, he wasn't joking.
-
As someone who has lived his whole life in europe. This is fascinating.
-
Had this recommended like 10 times, finalllly watched it, loved it and subbed but pleaaaaaaaaase next time you do a challenge like this, show us day 31 of what you ate as your "finally I'm free from X food".
-
This was really entertaining to watch. I don't watch many videos start to finish anymore, but I watched this in one sitting. I enjoyed your writing, production and the fact you shared a link of your food log since I'm a data/stats lover. And you're right about the cultural deep dives possible with so many brands out there. Looking forward to the next one :3. Thank you for the content.
-
Something magical about watching a dude you have never seen before, go to a place you never heard before for 45 minutes. Great work! Next one on the list is a 30 day wawa challenge 😂
-
when i worked at sheetz, we always used to joke about it being a family run company and how they probably had some random uncle no one really likes so they only let him do the playlists
-
I’m Canadian, and the city I’m from only has a 7-eleven. This was so much fun to watch ! I can’t wait to see you do Wawa.
-
found this on my recommended and i hope it blows up even more than it has right now - this challenge reminded me of ted nivison's food challenge videos and i would love to see you two collab !!
-
Never heard of you before. Never heard of Sheetz before. Enjoyed all 45ish minutes of this video. Thank you for the video. :D I'll have to look at your other stuff.
-
The best part about this is that you can tell a girl you just met "Hey sorry, I'm a youtuber and I can only eat at Sheetz for 30 days, do you wanna go to Sheetz with me?" and she is totally cool with it. That's a keeper right there.
-
I cannot believe I watched this whole thing... and loved every single second of it. You are tough stuff! The planning, the consistency, the tracking. This is wild.
-
Found your video and you are very talented. You should be proud of the work on this video and the effort is crazy. Keep it up! About to watch more videos you’ve made
-
Watching this I'm exceedingly jealous of your relationship with your friends, they're literally just there for you throughout this entire thing.
-
as a Texan whom has never heard of sheetz or the rival gas station mentioned in this video this is a great look into a gas stations that feel like Buc-ee's but aren't Buc-ee's
-
dude you’re doing amazing! just found your channel and subbed! can’t wait to see what else you got up your sleeve
