I know about the lack of these treats here in Baton Rouge. Only rarely do I come across them, sometimes, in a store I don't go to all that often. Come to think of it, I haven't seen them in a long time. Love Mallomars but can't get them here. We have the pinwheels, similar but not the same. When I called Nabisco they said "It is too hot to ship those". What?
