Howard Chatt and Bob and Sally Harnish reported finding them at Glazier’s Food Marketplace at 8525 W. Warm Springs Road, with the Harnishes pointing out that they’re available there in both cans and glass jars. Chatt also found them at the Wal-Mart Supercenter at 8060 W. Tropical Parkway, and Laura Crowton and Nancy Fiorello found them at Albertsons. …
I’ll also point out here that the Harnishes said they found more Pennsylvania-based products at Glazier’s than they’ve seen since leaving Pennsylvania 10 years ago. And I’ll remind that it’s also a treasure-trove for former New Yorkers. …

More on freestone peaches: Carol Butler found them in 28-ounce cans at Winco at 80 N. Stephanie St. in Henderson; there’s another Winco at 6101 N. Decatur Blvd. …
