I've never seen this in a Seattle store...well to be honest I've never looked for it, but I was wondering if anyone has seen this in a Seattle srtore?

I've also seen it at the Market Creamery in Pike Place Market. Cream cheese would be a better alternative.

I would just call any better grocery (ie not Safeway or QFC) nearest you and ask.

If you aren't worred about fat, I like a 50/50 mix of quark and creme Freshe. That's what I use when making flamekuche.
