Doesn't mean it's available everywhere in all the states... but I will
take a look...  just because it isn't in Wegmans, doesn't mean it isn't
somewhere else locally, but it does mean that I'm not likely to see it. 
;)  It might even be in Weggies, but I'm pretty sure I haven't seen it
there at all... and I usually keep track pretty well... :)

So that's one that's local to you...  :)

Wegmans also has the hormone free milk/dairy products... and recently a
full line of lactose-free milk...  theirs probably comes from the
Upstate Dairy Co-op here in NY...  :)
