Morning Alice,
We appreciate your support and obvious love of our traditional dry cured hickory smoked hams, bacon and sausage! Rosemont Market did indeed used to carry a number of our products, however they made a decision earlier this year to focus more on 100% natural, organic, and nitrite free items in their selection.
While our Surry Farms line is made using Certified Humane Bershire Breed Specific Hogs, nitrites are a required ingredient in the curing process. I will let you know that afetr aging the Surryano for 18 months the amount of nitrite in the ham virtually non-existant, but we are required to have it listed on our ingredeint statement. To be honest, the science behind the whole “nitrite issue” is a bit fuzzy, but there’s simply not enough room here to get into it all.
As far as retailers in your area, we continue to chat with Rosemont Market in hopes they will bring us back on board, and are always looking for other specialty stores to help us spread the word. If you have the name of another store in your area that you enjoy, we’d be happy to reach out to them if you can provide their name. You can also find our entire line of products available at our website, http://www.virginiatraditions.com .
Thanks again, and have a great weekend.., KR.

Hi Surry Farms:
I used to get your sausage and I think pkgs of ham at the local Rosemont Market.
No More.
Why not?
Please tell me another retail store near Portland Maine, where I can obtain your excellent products.

Thanks,
Alice

Eric and Bryan – Vatican tourist visits are fine, but I’m so glad you decided against entering the priesthood – I know it was a tough decision for both of you. But, I mean, what would we BOTB followers do without your pithy posts?
