I rarely see leeks, and when I do, they’re extremely expensive. Such a versatile vegetable that I wish more Americans knew about!
Where do you live where leeks are not common? Speaking for California here, they’re a common grocery store item.
Midwest here, I too can buy leeks any day of the week
Yeah, probably has more do to with proximity to at least a B tier grocery store. If your local grocer is Target, Walmart, or Family Dollar, then you’re only going to have access to the vegetables from Veggietales and bread from a plastic bag.
They grow naturally where I live. Not the giant ones like Farfetch'd carries, but when I was a kid, I loved digging them up in the woods and just eating them raw lol
I think that's a local thing. My grocer carries them, and they're always in stock. I line in the Midwest. But I seem to remember eating them a lot in Oregon, too?
