I was able to find simple pasteurized heavy whipping cream fairly
easily in the far distant past, but I wouldn't bet on it now.

Around here, it's the opposite. Don't even think about small amounts.
They have us over a barrel, so they're making us buy as much as
possible. It's particularly bad that way with buttermilk. It comes
in quarts, forget about pints or half-pints.

Yes, they do have us over a barrel. You're stuck with buying at *least* a
quart of it of buttermilk. I can still find pints of cream; I'm pretty sure
it's ultra pasteurized.
