Re: Where to get DCCC in Phila and elsewhere

[Guest guest]

We are near DC and we have been told there is some at Wegmans. Do

you have these stores near Phila?

I'm working on my local Whole Foods store to get the DCCC. They

carry the Friendship brand of cottage cheese - I talked with

the " cheese guy " at the store and also emailed their cheese dept.

online. We'll see if they respond.

Hi ,

They have the Friendship Dairies Farmer Cheese at Acme. I'm in Montgomery

County, right outside Philadelphia and this is where I've been purchasing it.

Good luck.

Where to get DCCC in Phila and elsewhere

Does anyone on this list know where to get dry curd cottage cheese in the

Philadelphia area?

Also, for those who can buy Friendship Dairy's Farmer's Cheese, do you know

or have any way of finding out who your store's

distributor/vendor/wholesaler is? Whole Foods stopped carrying it in the

Philadelphia area because their vendor stopped carrying it, but at least

one of the stores is interested in getting it back in if they can find a

vendor for it.

Thank you,

Ronnie,

Which Acme do you go to? I'm also in Montgomery County outside of

Philadelphia but my Acme (Horsham) does not have it.

,

I called Wegman's in Downingtown, PA and they have it! It's a far-western

suburb 37 miles away from me. They are building a new Wegman's in

Warrington/ south of Doylestown (outer northern suburbs of Phila) that will

be much closer to me and is supposed to open in October, so I won't have

far to go for long.

Thank you both for your help!

I'm in Elkins Park, it's the one in Jenkintown in the same center as the

Foxcroft Pavillion, about five minutes from my house. We also have a Whole Foods

and Trader Joe's.

The place that used to be called the Fox Pavilion?

Thanks! I've been in the Trader Joe's and Whole Foods in Jenkintown (both

of which don't have DCCC), but not the Jenkintown Acme.

Hi Ronnie, I'm in Delaware County, outside of Philly, and I'm also looking

for the DCCC. My local Acme doesn't have it, which one do you go to in

Montgomery County?

Thanks,

Lora

Yes, it's in the same area as the Fox Pavillion. Whole Foods did have

it a few months back but discontinued it. Do you know where I can find

sugar-free bacon around here??? I would love to find some.

I go to the one on Old York Road in Jenkintown, located off of the Fox

Pavillion. They have plenty. I have to tell you though, it's so wet, the

Friendship Dairies style. It's nothing like the DCCC that my mother purchased

when we were small. I remember it being these big DRY bolders wrapped in wax

paper. This is very moist and I still question if it is what I'm really looking

for.

Heyla, folks...

Getting DCCC can be very not easy -- I didn't have it and used dripped

yogurt for the first four years I was on SCD.

Whole Foods, at least here in New Orleans, has proved to be very

uncooperative on the matter. I was told that they didn't carry it. I was

told that they could carry it, but they had a problem with it spoiling

before it got to them. I was told their vendor no longer carried it, even

though they had other Friendship products in the store.

Hurricane Katrina actually did me a favor! ALL the Whole Foods stores and

the Farmer's Markets were closed for around 4-5 months after the August

Witch went through. So, to patronize our local famers, many of whom also

had severe damage to their property, Harry (my husband) and I started

driving once a week to Covington, across Lake Pontchartrain.

In Covington, I discovered there was a FRESH MARKET (www.freshmarket.com),

which we had visited in Birmingham, AL while we were in exile. The Fresh

Market had grind-your-own peanut butter which I tolerate very well,

although it might be somewhat coarse for some tummies. AND the Fresh Market

had DCCC in one pound packs.

This was a godsend for me, because I had no time to make yogurt after we

got back, so couldn't make all sorts of things which called for DCCC.

Whole Foods eventually got themselves open, and, lo and behold, had a

couple packets of 7 oz DCCC. Well, I'd certainly rather hit a store that's

across the street from where I work than drive a 100 miles round trip on

the weekends. So, next week, I went back to get some more. They didn't have

it. I got the pre-Katrina run-around. Oh, and they'd have to have the UPC

codes before they MIGHT be able to order it. I reached in my pocket and

pulled out the labels with UPC codes for both the one pound and the seven

ounce packages. They hemmed and they hawed.

I asked to speak to the cheese department manager. He came. I told him that

I was not happy that they couldn't get this product for me. He started in

with Katrina-this... I held up my hand, and said, " You've been telling me

this for the last four years. Katrina has nothing to do with it. And, I

find it very interesting that YOU can't get it, but the much smaller Fresh

Market in Covington not only can get it, but stocks it regularly, and is

happy to order a case for me if I call them a few days in advance. "

Cheese manager went in the back and returned with (surprise!) a case of the

7 oz packages of DCCC.

So, if Whole Food gives you a run around... keep after them.

Whole Foods has many fine products and many great people, but I think that,

at least here, where they have had little or no competition in the organic

and health food line, they have become a trifle, shall we say, arrogant

about what they provide their customers.

If anyone needs the UPC code numbers, I have them for both size packages.

-- Marilyn (New Orleans, Louisiana, USA)

PS: Whole Foods has the same kind of grinder for nut butters that Fresh

Market does. I was unimpressed because the nut butter I got from them was

rancid. I emailed them about it after I got sick from it, and they never

did me the courtesy of replying.

Awesome! I think we're heading today to our local Wegmans to find it

also - great!
