Finding A Place to Shop
Well, this whole Jomnivore thing isn’t going to be as easy as I thought. First, my Irish/Italian wife said that there’s no way she’s cooking with gefilte fish. I suppose I don’t really blame her, since it really is quite disgusting. I’m not going to worry about that for a while, since I’m putting off the gefilte gastronomy session as long as humanly possible.
The real problem is the shopping. I went to King Soopers (the local grocery chain) yesterday to see what sort of selection they had and this is what I found:

Yep, one small section for Jewish “ethnic” food. Matzoh, matzoh ball soup mix, gefilte fish jars and some random kosher stuff. It looks like I’m going to have to try a little harder in order to get this rolling.
I did a little searching and managed to find a website called Kosher.com that sells all things kosher:
Thankfully, they offer free shipping on orders of $50 or more, so at least I won’t go broke from shipping charges. Since there’s about 5 Jewish people in Boulder, apparently there’s not much of a market for a grocery store that sells the chosen food.
