@ShayP WTAF?  I have needs but that's insane. Are they putting gold in there or something?

Yikes!   But the horseradish is only $7.99! 

I had to do a double take on that brand.  That's out of Buffalo. @Walks_At_Night  I confused that brand with Wasilewski's which is produced about 40 miles from me.

Yeah, Polish names are confusing. I'm a Vollwerth's guy. The product prices are fair but the shipping is steep so was looking at alternatives.  There ain't no magic as they say. A staple of Rust Belt life but I can't get it here.

@ShayP drive over to Philly. We have great Polish shops.

Since we're on the topic of sausages, @Walks_At_Night give Hofmann's a try if you can.  They're based in Syracuse.  I got them at a Wegmans in Virginia.  I think you may have one in your neck of the woods.  The best Kielbasa I've had.  Same with the hot dogs; especially the natural casing ones.  I love that snap.  They don't sell them here and I don't eat enough to order online and pay for shipping.  The shipping is probably just as steep as Vollwerth.  I checked them out.  They have a pretty good selection.  I'm intrigued by the Rebel Hot Polish Sausage.

In Philly kielbasa is for sale everywhere. Corner stores will have kielbasa hanging off a rack or two.
The GO TO shop is CZERW's. People stand in line for hours during the Christmas and Easter seasons for Czerw's Kielbasy. kielbasyboys.com @ShayP

@FISH which do you like better?  Smoked or fresh?  While smoked was a staple in my childhood diet, I preferred Sunday’s treat. Fresh kielbasa. Along with everything else that went into a polish after church dinner feast.

@FISH  Between turnpike tolls and gas, I'd go bankrupt. 

That's actually similar to a shop that was in Richmond, VA.  I recognize the Bacik brand.  The shop closed within a year.

I'd like to go there. @FISH  Reminds me of a few that were here when I was young.  Sadly, a lot of the establishments like that have died in Pittsburgh.

Thanks for the steer. We do have a Wegman's that recently opened in the area here in an attempt to compete with the Food Dawg. I'll have to pick up some Hoffman's.  Still doesn't solve my Ring Bologna problem.

I have fond memories of a sweet old Ukrainian lady making me mashed potatoes. She would add some bacon and bacon grease to this dish.
For Christmas and Easter I will buy fatty smoked kielbasa and cook it up with a polish sauerkraut. Of course, I cook the sauerkraut for at least 2 hours before adding the kielbasa. @ShayP
Funny thing is the next generation is very fond of the skinny kielbasa.

PS/I make wonderful golumpkis.  have an old old recipe for pierogi. It is not easy for a nice Irish girl to make homemade Polish food.

You're welcome. @Walks_At_Night   I know it's not the brand you were used to and crave, but, Hofmann's has Ring Bologna.  It was in the Wegmans I mentioned.  I never purchased it.  Not sure if all Wegmans have the same stock though.

"nice Irish girl?" 

I kid!      I'll have some of those golumpkis and the kielbasa and sauerkraut.
