While the story might have been interesting, I just didn't want to sign up for the Wall Street Journal.

While the story might have been interesting, I just didn't want to sign up for the Wall Street Journal. Google the headline, and you get a link without sign up requirements. Or you should. I think it's part of Google's listing requirements that you can't bait and switch results. |

It did
That could actually explain another thing about the markets, why some of the vegetables are so spotty and ephemeral in distribution. I can get yard long beans pretty much anywhere at any time, but to get a specific type of YL's I am fond of (extra fat, may possibly be white)* requires hitting one stand at one point in the year; they show up no where else. And there's another that only showed up once PERIOD (even fatter, wrinkly) off an out of the way cart on Essex. Ditto fruit. Only two or three places carry Lain Wu or Wong Pei, Sugar Apples,Bullock's Hearts or Soursops (which based on some of the threads I have seen on Chow, must cause a stampede every year.) Tiny producers would explain why some things are so elusive.
