I remember getting that both at Fairay and at the small Korean produce adn
a few other things stores that were so common in my earlier married days.
they seem to all have disappeared. I guess that first generation that
ran these store is now retired anad the kids have all gone to college and
have other kinds of jobs now.

I also miss that tofu. I think it kind of hung together better.
