Half convenience store, half deli, bodegas are an essential part of life in New York City. On an all-new episode of Snacked, Brooklyn rapper and “Raising Kanan” star Joey Bada$$ lays out the bodega classics everyone should know, from “quarter waters” and Vienna sausages, to honey buns and Kisko Freezies. Plus, Joey breaks down the keys to getting the most out of a BK bodega, from the importance of getting to know your bodega man, to what a store’s snacks can tell you about the surrounding neighborhood.

If you hit the bodega or gas station with $5 in your pocket, what are you picking up?

An urban metro NY’er should have not only had each of these snacks at least once, but def misses having a bodega if they move.
He was speaking the truth about those “quarter waters” and Vienna sausage. Those two items got a lot of broke kids through tight times.
