The Consolidated "Where Can I Find _______?" thread

(For those items that may not really need their own thread)

I'll start:

I do a lot of grilling and often will do veggies for my spouse along side the meats. But I put those veggies in an aluminum pie pan.

The problem? The ones you can buy at the grocery are simply too flimsy.

So... Where can I find the slightly sturdier pans like you get when you buy a whole pie at Shari's/Village Inn/etc.?

TIA!

Restaurant supply stores. You can find disposable aluminum pans.

I thought cooking in aluminum was linked to Alzheimer's. Or was that 1980s science that has been debunked?

Poi! I need poi.

in Hawaii we love “taro bread buns” and a recipe calls for a cup of Poi.

the purple color of taro bread is purple food coloring. Sad! I thought it was a natural color. Maybe that’s why I can’t find taro buns in San Francisco!

so how or where can I buy poi? I’m not confident about buying actual taro and then cooking and smashing it. Sigh.
