Iceblossom... I live in Davenport , Iowa. Non of the grocery stores are stocking mincemeat in jars this season. Believe me, I've looked everywhere but Target which is on the other side of town about 12 miles away. We do not like the dry mincemeat as it does not make a moist enough cookie IMHO, and did not see it on the shelves either. Christmas only comes once a year so that's why I ordered it.
