We got to Global Foods often and HMart a bit less. However, my Safeway carries cubanelles and yucca.

You need to go to ethnic stores for better produce. You can find all that and a lot more. I enjoy looking at all the stuff that is unknown to me and wondering what you do with them. Sometimes I’ll buy some strange vegetable and try it out.

Try a store in Silver Spring if you're in MD. I get cubanelles and yucca at Giant.

Have you tried any of the Korean markets? H-Mart, Lotte, etc.?
