Q: I used to be able to purchase Krinos taramosalata at Harry’s Farmer’s Market before, and shortly after, it became Whole Foods. Now I cannot locate this at the location in Marietta. Is there a local source? Thanks. — Julia Goode, Canton
A: You’ll find the Greek caviar-style dip, which is made with carp roe and blended with lemon, at Sprouts Farmers Market, 3630 Peachtree Parkway, Suwanee, 678-690-1243. An 8-ounce jar of Krinos taramosalata costs $5.99. It’s in the refrigerated deli section, just to the right of the hummus.
Q: I am trying to find cavatelli pasta made with ricotta cheese. Celentano used to make this product, but now they only have the plain cavatelli. This is one of my family favorites. Thank you for your help. — Debbie Butler, Roswell
A: Good news for you and your family, Debbie. I found Roma brand cavatelli made with ricotta and whole eggs in 1-pound bags for $2.50. Cavatelli is often described as a pasta shape resembling tiny hot dog buns. You’ll find this pasta at E. 48th Street Market, 2462 Jett Ferry Road, Dunwoody, 770-392-1499.
Q: I’m looking for a cleaning product called OOPS. It came in a 6-ounce can and cleaned virtually any stains like permanent marker ink, tar and tree sap off of hard surfaces. It used to be in hardware stores, but it seems to have disappeared. Thanks in advance for your help. — Robert Messina, McDonough
A: OOPS multi-purpose cleaner and remover can be used on multiple surfaces that include carpet, wood, metal and glass. While it may not easily be found in hardware stores, it’s a staple at a well-known paint store. You’ll find quarts of OOPS for $7.29 at Sherwin-Williams, 466 Industrial Blvd., McDonough, 678-432-0086.
Q: I am looking for a simple item — Johnson and Johnson Reach dental floss, which is not waxed and not flavored. It’s just plain old dental floss. I can’t find it anywhere in Atlanta. Can you help me and my teeth? Thank you. — David Ryback, Atlanta
A: This is one of those answers that combines both bad and good news. Unwaxed, unflavored Reach has been discontinued, but I found some for you at Little Five Points Pharmacy, 484 Moreland Ave., Atlanta, 404-524-4466. The plain dental floss is priced at $3.29 for 55 yards.
