On another list to which I belong, a Canadian in the US mentioned finding Habitant Pea Soup and HP sauce in their local grocery store - a Big Y Supermarket. Curious to see if there are any Big Y's here in the south (there aren't - they are only in New England) I started searching google - and came across the Wickipedia entry for Grocery Stores in the US. What a useful entry! It lists by name the different grocery stores and where they are located as well as listing their parent organizations. There are some interesting surprises - like Trader Joe's and Aldi's are both owned by the same German parent firm (we have lots of Aldi's near by - no Trader Joe's, wish we did!). Anyway, I thought I would share the link here as a number of you might find it of interest and/or of use.

“...Isn't it splendid to think of all the things there are to find out about? It just makes me feel glad to be alive--it's such an interesting world. It wouldn't be half so interesting if we knew all about everything, would it? There'd be no scope for imagination then, would there?”
