eve_primeAs I reported recently, our neighborhood supermarket no longer stocks the normal Barilla rotini. And my silly problem has gotten worse!
Now they've reorganized the entire aisle of pastas, pasta sauces, and canned tomato-based products. The Barilla section is rather smaller, and still strange. There's lots and lots of tri-color rotini, and they still have the whole wheat rotini and a ready-to-eat rotini. The vegetable-based rotini has been replaced by gluten-free rotini. And there's still no regular rotini! There's also no regular medium shells, nor is there penne (D's new favorite). They do have cellentani, which is pretty weird, as it's hardly a shape customers will come in looking for, and they'd never stocked it until a few weeks ago.
I bought some rotini in another store, but it cost way more than it does at Safeway. So silly.
