I went in and ordered an egg and cheese bagel sandwich. It was cheap, maybe $3. While the lady was making my order, I looked around the store for a little bit, and started noticing things. It was not clean. The bread the sandwiches were made out of was lined up on a board where anyone could cough/sneeze on them. The bottled lipton iced tea for sale had EXPIRED a year ago. I paid for my sandwich and left, but was having second thoughts on eating it - looking around the deli had kind of squikked me out. I almost convinced myself I should just throw it away - it was only $3, but I was really hungry, so I ate some of it. The fried egg was actually pretty good, but the cheese was a processed cheese slice and the bagel was just bagel-shaped bread - soft and squishy and not very interesting.

• Pros: sandwich didn't make me sick
• Cons: dirty, unsanitary conditions; selling expired items
