This is just another example of Safeway going down hill. They have stopped carrying the Safeway Select version of preserves, including
the orange marmalade that I (and Nancy) like. Gail was out of
strawberry and so got a jar of their ordinary preserves. It was not nearly as good. The store manager says that they are replacing the
Select with something else, but we have not yet seen nor tasted it.

That's indeed sad.... Hopefully the replacement will be at least as
good, but that certainly isn't guaranteed.... Fortunately, my supply
will last a while.... ;)

We looked when we were there a few days ago. Their replacement for
the Select preserves has a "Sweet orange marmalade". I think that we
will both take a pass on trying that.

I guess so.... sigh... Maybe some day we'll come across Seville orange marmalade somewhere....

If you do - hang on to your wallet. Just looked at Amazon. The least pricey example was a "bulk buy" (3 containers) @ 30c/oz to a Trappist (Brand) All-Natural @ $1.19/oz.
You can, of course, always make your own. Bv)=

I did a more general search and found the Trappist Seville orange marmalade for $3.75 per 12 ounce jar when ordered by a case of 12.
That works out to being $0.31 per ounce. Still, not likely to do that since 12 jars might last longer than I will.

A search for seville oranges turned up even fewer hits than for the marmalade itself -- in fact none currently for sale. So that is
also a non-starter, not to mention that we don't do canning.
White wine is the more common treatment for mussels, but beer might be good.

Which is comparable to the "bulk buy" I mentioned.

See tagline on the Mxkey post - it would have been more appropriate appended here.

?? You quoted the Trappist as being 1.19/oz. $3.75 for 12 ounce is $0.3125 per ounce.

Agreed -- and I just saw that line someplace else today, in a cartoon strip.

My web search tonight turned up a Trader Joe's SOM, but since I have
not been inside a Trader Joe's for several decades, I cannot verify
this.
What I can say is that Amazon wants to sell it at a pretty
outlandish price, well in excess ot $1 per ounce.

There's a Trader Joe's locally that I might stop by, just for the jollies.... if the weather isn't too bad tomorrow, I might even do it
on my way home from the hygenist (the office is nearby)....

So.... I did stop by yesterday, and indeed they do have the Seville marmalade... I bought one there, $3.49 for a 17.5 ounce jar... not
that I needed it yet, but it made it easier to remember details... ;)

Thanks for the info. Next time we go to that shopping center, I might make a detour into TJs.
