I suppose it was inevitable that any discussion of military re-enactment would end in gas station food.  ;)

The featured dish at most of the local establishments is broasted chicken, every night.

Broasted?  Is that some sort of historically accurate Roman way of making chicken?

I hear it was common practice for the Roman legions to eat at gas stations on their way to the garrisons in Dacia.

Er no, it's a style of pressure frying used by KFC and many places that prepare fried chicken.  I don't think Colonel Sanders invented it, but IIRC he used it early-on in his business.
