This shouldn't be so difficult

I should not have to truck all the way in to the North End to get liquid fruit pectin. I probably don't actually have to, but so far, that's the only shop I can find that says they have the stuff, and I am wondering a bit even on them.

My research had several independent sources listing one particular place for canning supplies. I called, and the gent I talked to said yes, they have canning supplies of many sorts. Do they have liquid pectin? "Yeah, I think we do."

So, I keep looking, and try that if I can't confirm another source.

I'd try local hardware stores as well as local groceries. By phone, of course.

I had no problem finding dry pectin this weekend.

Is there a specific reason for liquid pectin? I've found pretty good success with Pomona Universal Pectin (powder form, gels when you add a calcium solution). Barring that, smaller/neighborhood grocery stores and hardware stores would be good places to look. Chains? Not so much.
