Boars Head is sold all over the south. Publix in fact carries it, I believe?

Last time I visited Houston I saw BH all over too. But it was 3 times
the price of what we get here in Chicago. Their pepperoni is superb.
But everything else is not worth the extra money. Surprising the BH
pepperoni at the butcher isn't that much more money than the crappy
Hormel junk at the stupidmarket.

It's in Chicago too, but there's so many others. A new one I've seen
a lot is Dietz & Watson. I've seen their trucks at several
restaurants. They must have aggressive salespeople. I've tried a few
of their things and I'd say they were un-remarkable.

I'd say the best in Chicago is the Crawford Sausage Co. Big money and
worth every penny. Even the $7 a pound hot dogs are worth it.

Then it seems that Boars Head is sold damned near everywhere these days.

Yep, this was true in Atlanta -- a Publix there had more different
Boar's Head products than I've seen anywhere.

One market near me sells it at BH's private center aisle stand near the
butcher but they don't sell the entire product line.

You're never going to be happy until you learn to let go of all of that
hate. Why, in terms of hatred, you could be Sheldon's retarded promiscuous
sister!
