Where in the grocery store would i look for canned artichokes ( in water i
think)? I have seen them cooked with on TV but all I know of are the
quartered marinated artichoke > hearts that come in a jar. Plain ones
packed in water i think are not near vegetables. where else to look?

Someplace different in every store. In mind, they're with the canned
vegetables, and also in an Italian specialties section. When you asked a
store employee where to find them, what did they say?

Hmm... Artichokes are vegetables, right?

Canned ... vegetables ... Hmm, that's a tough one. Let me think
about that one some more...

Be sure to stay hydrated, Steve. This could be stressful.

Depends on the store. In one store I shop at they are with the canned
veggies. In another store I shop at they are in a special section with
canned artichoke hearts, bottoms where you'll also find jarred, dilled,
green beans, carrots and other pickled veggies like mushrooms. Did you ask
for help at the store?

In our stores they're with Canned . . . Vegetables. Usually at the
beginning near the "A"s. They are ALSO sometimes in the Italian section
with Italian Anchovies, Roasted Peppers and [censored] bottled parmesan cheese.

Maybe shop in a bigger store??

Mine are found in the canned veggie section, near the small jarred
onions, asparagus, roasted peppers, etc.

In our stores they are with the jarred olives, capers, pickled peppers, etc.
They have both the marinated and canned artichokes in the same location.

Have you asked a store clerk? The manager? I think I buy them with the
canned vegetables. I can't tell from your post if you've looked there
and not found them or if you're assuming they're not there. Ask a
clerk. Good luck in the hunt!

All I can think is that the staff at everyone else's stores must be
much more available and knowledgable than where I shop.

Sometimes you've gotta wonder.

A few years ago the clerk where I was checking out received a call
asking "Where do we keep the clam juice?" He didn't know. I said:
"Top shelf, above the tuna and canned crab."

He asked: "Why do they call it clam JUICE?"

My reply: "If they called it clam pee no one would buy it."

Then we looked at each other and began to laugh so hard we were gasping
for breath. It was one of the best laughs I've ever experienced. I
guess you had to be there....
