Gigi offered to "jump thru hoops",
including working w/customs to get
Pita Puffs for me. She even gave me
her home phone #.
I have sent her a letter of thanks,
but have chosen to get P.P.s from
the NH source I mentioned above.
Steve, thanks for your info (which
I got after I made the above three
contacts). I will keep it to back
up the info I have. Thanks to all, and I hope you have a happy, healthy New Year. delabate

ReplyDeleteHi! I found the Handi Foods Baked Pita chips at Meijer in Indianapolis, IN. I didn't see any puffs, though. I bought the garlic and chives flavor and they are great.
ReplyDeleteThey are sold at the grocery store on the corner of Ottawa/Lackner in Kitchener!
ReplyDeleteThese illusive pita puffs can be found at Food Basics stores across Toronto. Not at ALL locations though. And may or may not carry all flavours.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy!
I found hem at highland farms but they were selling out quick!
ReplyDeleteI bought these today at Food Basics for $1.47 a bag. They were the BBQ ones.
ReplyDeleteYUMMY!
Think I know why I haven't been able to find them easily lately. Company had some legal trouble.

I don't think you read that source all that well as their legal troubles were dated 1993! That's 16 years ago!
ReplyDeletedoes anyone know where i can buy these in bulk? asap
ReplyDeleteBoston MA area Trader Joes are currently selling bags of salted plain Trader Joe Pita Puffs.
