All three national grocery (Safeway, Raley's, and Albertson's) chains carry
it in the dairy section, right next to the sour cream. Granted, it's often
tucked at the top of the displays and there only seems to be one choice but
if my white-bread-basic-stores have it, I'd be willing to bet other stores
carry it, too.
