I just got turned on to Luke's recently...omg so good! The Cadillac of mayonnaise.
I've also developed a yogurt addiction, which I never considered a possibility until I had Noosa yogurt, it's beyond the best yogurt ever! Raspberry is my favorite but it's all amazing

Dukes tastes great, but it’s definitely not the Cadillac of mayonnaise. They still use heavily processed, likely GMO canola oil. The Cadillac is Sir Kensington‘s avocado oil mayonnaise, which also uses cage free eggs. It’s super pricey, tho. When I can, I make my own using avocado oil and fresh eggs. Convenience of jar mayo is what keeps me buying store bought, tho.

I've never seen Sir Kensington's. Sounds like the Bentley of mayonnaise... Hard to get and pricey, lol.
Never made my own mayo. That would have been a good project from when we still had chickens.
Vita Cost has it.

Have a sort of friend who is a OTR driver - he says that they have cut their prices on loads and loads are hard to get. You'd think it would be the other way around, but it's not.
Here's something else that really puzzles me - how come I can order stuff from Amazon that I can't get locally and have it delivered within 2 days? Case in point is the 32 oz spray bottles - can't be found anywhere in Denver or surrounding burbs but readily available and reasonably priced through Amazon.
Sounds like their supply chain not only hasn't broken but has ramped up unlike other stores. It does annoy me to have to order from them and my Prime Account sure has had a workout since Feb or so.

Unfortunately here in Colorado I'd probably have to go with short day or intermediate and get them planted in mid-May. I'll ask the local garden expert next door if he's ever tried them and see what he recommends.

It is actually a sign of the supply chain breaking.
Uneven supply would indicate not enough product available. Under such circumstances you would have the biggest customers (read most profitable / least cost) served first and foremost. Amazon for many is the biggest and most profitable customer. Others, not so much.
Also being big, they have more pull on getting supplied than say for example the local package store.

One reason for this is third-party sellers. Joe Blow sees the bottle on clearance for 19 cents at Walmart and then he drives in an ever-expanding circle, hitting every Walmart and cleaning the shelves. He is not the only one doing that. So lets say in about three or four months there is a demand for the spray bottles. He labels them with his SKU (assigned by Amazon) and sends them into a warehouse where they sell for the going rate. It is a lot of work and hustle but there are people making a living, a good living in fact, doing this.
Bezos is smart. He is using Other Peoples Money to build up his inventory. He has built his business on using Other Peoples Money. He is an a**hole, but a smart a**hole.

I discovered Noosa yogurt like 2 weeks ago and am in love! And I hate yogurt!!! The best is correct! Not at all a diet yogurt but rich and creamy special dessert like! Love!!!!

Neither here nor there.
Tried it, and it's nasty, it has a weird after taste.

My wife says you need both a good mayo and miracle whip in potato salad...hers anyway. I like her potato salad, though. I've seen mayo junkified over the years...like many foods.
