Do normal chain grocery stores carry fresh Parsely?

Question

Like Jewel, Cub Foods, etc?

In the fresh vegetable area?

Answer 1

Yes, it's very common and found in the produce section. Just make sure you don't pick up "cilantro" by mistake; it's usally very near the parsley and has a completely different flavor.

Answer 2

I'm in the USA---I can't determine where you are---and most grocery retailers do carry fresh parsley, as well as other fresh herbs. Some stuff is seasonal, but parsley is usually available year-round.

Instead of paying maybe $1 (the going rate around here) for a bunch of parsley, you might try growing it yourself. It's actually one of the easier herbs to grow---both the flat-leaf and the curly kind. They require only partial sun, unlike herbs such as basil and tarragon.

For maybe $2 or $3, you can get a small parsley plant, in a 3 or 4 inch pot. It'll grow just fine on your windowsill. Just snip off pieces as you need them. As it grows, if you're feeling industrious, you can transplant it to a larger pot.

Answer 3

Ohio grocery stores sound the same as yours. I've never seen bunches of basil. You have to grow your own to get that much. Or maybe a farmer's market?? Think I'll go buy a plant or two for the summer.

Answer 4

Right in the produce section. Depending on what store you go to, sometimes it's FREE. Hy-Vee's always let you have one free bunch. Imagine my shock in CA when I actually had to PAY for parsley!

Answer 5

check in the fresh section if not ask to speak to the produce manager and see if they will carry it. happy cooking. tip: if you chew on some it freshens your breath after dinner too.
