<p>[QUOTE="gregsglass, post: 45951, member: 78"]Hi,</p><p> You can still buy smaller ones in Chinese markets they contain dried ginger root. Bigger ones are sold at the Pearl River Market which is a large Chinese department store in Chinatown NY. I loved going there there was so much to see and buy. I used to buy all my chopsticks there. Some lacquer ones were more expensive but they had all kinds of inlay. My favorite were red lacquer with MOP and green enamel. They were 2 bucks each but well worth it. So smooth and sturdy. They sold bars of good old fashioned lye soap with pretty wrappers great for getting out stains on naphkins and clothes.</p><p>greg[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
