I haven't noticed it in our Asian store here, but not that you
mentioned it I will be looking. There sure is a lot of other stuff in
there.
I believe the man in our Asian store does not read English. I had
asked about Rooster Sauce and he had no idea, but I found it on the
shelves, and my DH found the Japanese Mayo also.
I also saw, now that I know what I'm looking for, the Rooster Sauce
in, gasp, Walmart!! So I'm looking at their Ethnic food more
carefully. Forgot the price at Asian store so I couldn't compare.
