Road trip ready - do you buy or pack a bite to eat?

Before cafes started popping up in tiny towns, families would load up the picnic basket and pile out of the car into the fresh air for a bite - and we've heard we might be steering away from scanning in and instead, cracking open a flask like the old days. Let us know about your road trip food plans these days.
