They are also a seasonal item. They often are not in stock. And I
remember a slightly different brand a few years back. The spices were a
little different. I'm guessing they aren't a Christmas item, so
probably there aren't any right now. If you aren't sure whether you
will like them, you might try a little jar from a regular grocery store.
I think Safeway had them last time I looked.
