I got it at a family-owned grocery here in town, Meehan's. I think they have a couple more stores in the area, like Roodhouse and elsewhere I can't recall at the moment. So true, Great American Outback. My walkabout consists of wandering the bi-state area looking for exotic edibles and fine art outlets. I've got vacation coming up next week. Can you recommend anything new up your way? I have a chilehead friend who lives there, but he's been busy building and trimming out his new house and hasn't bothered searching the sprawl of Springfield. Any new Asian or African places? My last good dinner was either at Pho Grand (killer spring rolls and iced coffee) in STL or the Ethiopian place in U-City, Red Lion. It's been too long! -- ´´ Mark McHugh
