ISO: ISO: Can anyone find alphabet pasta?

[cheezz]

My local Vons carries Barillo but it's a small store and they didn't have alphabet pasta

I'll check my local Ralphs and see if they have it.

I used to find them in either Ralph's or Von's in the Hispanic sections.

They came in a cello bag that was bordered in black and weighed about 6 or 8 ounces and cost about $.25. They also had fideo and little stars. I know they have them somewhere here too but not in the town that I am in. I will keep checking and I want to thank everyone for their help!

Dawn, I'll check my Ralphs tomorrow - it's a big store - thanks for the hint about the Hispanic sec.

Went to 2 markets this morning, no alphabet pasta. Will try one more tomorrow.

Thanks so much everyone! I really appreciate your efforts.

Found them. But they're really teeny tiny alphabets. Was that what you were looking for? They were

32 cents for a 7 oz pkg so I got several for you. If you wanted something larger, no problem, I'll just keep them and use in soups this winter. Will send you an email.
