What brand of gasoline can I buy in the Temple, Texas area that is NOT
Saudi Arabian oil?

According to the following page, only Sunoco and Sinclair
do not buy oil from Saudi sources, with the exception
of Conoco, which currently imports from Mexico, Venezuela
and Canada, but is soon to merge with Phillips, which
does import from Saudi Arabia.

This page also examines the strategy of boycotting
Saudi oil in general, as well as some incorrect
information which has been circulating the internet
in this regard.
This page cites its resource as the US Department of
Energy, and provides links to pages on that site
which support the conclusions:

and an explanation of the codes on that page:

I could not determine whether the above brands are
available in Temple, Texas, but you will know if
they are available locally. If they are not, there
are no alternatives I can suggest.
