Has anyone seen black garlic in LA area supermarkets?

Hi All,
Saw a killer recipe for octopus that involves black garlic. I've been hearing about this stuff but haven't been able to source it yet, other than mail order for over $30/lb. Has anyone seen it in markets? Preferrably Silver Lake adjacent?
Thanks!

    When the general press started talking about it - maybe a year ago?- I saw it next to the regular garlic at Pavillions (Vons) in Rolling Hills Estates. Maybe call your local Vons/Pavillions. My recollection is that it was not over the top pricey. I think I may have seen it at a Korean market a while ago so that might be a source as well
