Rotel Green Chiles.



Noncommon item that seems to be at most grocery store - Quinoa.

At our local Publix, the quinoa is in the canned fruit section.

Is an enigma. Doesn't actually exist.

Velveeta


You use Velveeta? Eww... (j/k) It is hard to find because it's sometimes in the cooler section, sometimes not, and doesn't really fit into any category.

Mine:
--Bread crumbs, which are sometimes next to flour & sometimes next to bread or even seasonings.
--fish fry, next to flour/corn meal or in the "Cajun" section wherever that may be.
--Kool-Aid packets, believe it or not. Next to water, coke, or juice, but never the same in every store. And usually not found next to Capri-sun/Kool-Aid pouches.

Not in all grocery stores but my local store keeps the milk and orange juice on opposite sides of the damn store and I always forget about the OJ.

Toothless, do you actually refer yourself as a cajun? NO TRINITY?

Toothpicks and Mason jar lids.

Most big grocery stores stock these - I just always have a hard time actually FINDING them.

Some stores here keep the taco seasoning with the gravy mix packets instead of with the taco shells, taco sauce, salsa, etc.





Senseless.

I've been down that road before. Even after asking a clerk, we still had problems finding toothpicks.
