7-Eleven Hosts First Fabulous Fresh Foods Friday

PORTLAND, Ore. -- Believing that tasting is everything, 7-Eleven, Inc. dedicated today for Oregon-area residents to see what’s cooking, brewing, baking and warming at its stores on its first Fabulous Fresh Foods Friday (FFFF).

From 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., selected 7-Eleven stores served free samples of its prepared foods, such as Jalapeño Cheddar Sausage, Blueberry Pancake Sausage Roller, Mini Donuts, Turkey and Havarti Sandwiches, Hot Cheese and Pepperoni Pizza, Chicken Chipotle Mini Tacos, and hot beverages such as 7-Eleven’s new Brazilian Dark Roast coffee and Skinny Salted Caramel Mocha cappuccino.

Seven Portland stores participated in the sampling event, as well as 7-Eleven stores in Albany, Aloha, Beaverton, Coos Bay, Medford, Pasco and Redmond, Ore.

Stores in Spokane, Spokane Valley, Springfield, Tigard, Vancouver, West Linn, Woodburn and Yakima, Wash., also took part in the event one week ago.

"7-Eleven is focused on creating foods and beverages that are not just convenient, but also delicious — especially delicious," said Larry Hughes, zone leader for Oregon and Washington 7-Eleven stores. "Whether someone is hungry for breakfast, lunch, or a snack and drink to tide them over between meals, our stores have something tasty to offer. Fresh Foods Friday lets us showcase and sample some of our newest items. I think once people taste for themselves, they’ll consider 7-Eleven as an alternative to the typical fast-food restaurants."

Foods and drinks sampled varied by store.
