Groceries

Anyone know of a grocery store chain in the Seattle area that carries these exact brands, flavors, and quantities of the following three products simultaneously in the same store?



The Albertson's near my house does in fact carry the knudsen stuff, however, their supplier refresh rate is TERRIBLE. I often go there and find that its expiration date is either past due, or it's coming up in a day or two. That stuff should have a lead-time of at least a week or two. Near the end of January, I bought a tub of the stuff dated Feb 2nd, then returned 7 days later to get more, and found the stuff on the shelf was still dated Feb 2nd (which was by then only a day or two off).

Looked at a number of other local places, and while stores often carry the snapple (unlike my Albertsons), that Knudsen stuff is as rare as a bag full of rare things.

I thought QFC was one of the places I checked out recently, but I wasn't sure and it might have been a different place. I will try again. It was already on my short list of places to try.

Knudsen is a division of Kraft foods, and I already tried emailing them directly. Their answer was that they couldn't give me any information about which individual stores or distributors carried which products.

I have tried to ask the staff at Albertson's who their distributor is for that product, so I could find what other stores that distributor services, but no luck there either.
