Finger Limes: Has anyone seen them in the East Bay?

[Dawgmommy]

They seem to be the "IT" citrus of the moment... I saw some today, in St Helena. They were in a small container of 10-12, ranging in color from green to black. And cost $15.99! Has anyone seen them available loose, in the East Bay? I just want to try one or two...

Today at Berkeley Bowl.
$13.69 for a basket -- half a pint.

I just saw them at the Whole Foods on Bay in Oakland. They were in a container as well though.

Expensive little curiosity aren't they?

Hey, thanks. They're been popping up in various articles and food magazines. Maybe in a year or 2, they'll be more widely available. I might have bought one or two to try, but it was too many and I knew I wasn't going to use them all.
