Where do you find sour/tart cherries?

Question

I used to find canned tart cherries at every local supermarket, now i can only find processed cherry pie filling. Does any one have a good source? I hate to pit my own...

Answer 1

Fresh off the tree or try going to some European or Asian Market.

Answer 2

Try a Middle Eastern market, because there are some Persian dishes that call for sour cherries. I don't know the name of one dish in mind, but the other is rose ice cream with rice noodles and sour cherries. Yum! You can also try an Armenian market. Although Armenia is not part of the MEast but of Eastern Europe, the cuisine is similar to MEastern. Or you can look online.
