It's def a thing in many bodegas that they will use anything from the store as part of your sandwich. My wife likes croissant egg and cheese, and I just go grab a pre-packaged croissant, I asked for fresh jalapenos, and the deli guy just had me grab a jalapeño from the veg area to put on. The ockee stuff is really just taking that concept to the extreme.

The thing I love about General Ock's bodega is that my NYC friends HATE HIM just because it doesnt represent nyc. They think that only tourists/jersey people would come to new york just for that. when in actuality, people from jersey like general ock because he's the type of person we wanna see at our deli's; Happy, having fun, making people feel like they can get through the day. General ock is a gift the new yorkers dont realize they have. and they dont deserve to have him either, honestly...

Here in Charlottetown in the province of PEI Canada we had our own type of bodega. Many Lebanese immigrants ran convenience stores but many had a lunch counter even a laundromat and pool tables. The food in the stores had a Lebanese spin on it the main thing people got was a shawarma; spiced chicken (cardamom gives it a unique flavour), vegetables, yogurt sauce. It's a bit like a donair popularized in Halifax (nearby in Nova Scotia - lots of Greek people there). Also outside the city there were similar stores not Lebanese-owned though the popular food there was fries with the works; fries, ground beef, gravy, peas all mixed together. There nothing like eating in a convenience store with the smell of grease and laundry soap.
