24/7 EATS?! & it’s good? If you’re looking for a GREAT Chopped cheese at any time, you NEED to go to Hajji’s. That’s it that’s all & don’t get anything else but a chopped cheese and a drink😂 I can’t speak for anything else

This is for all my lovers! For just $1 you can have a huge jar of pickles! There’s also a huge variety of other picked veggies and fruits if you’re interested in that. Definitely something to check out !
