- FOOD FINDERS HEIDI KNAPP RINELLA

TRoma’s restaurant­s aren’t as numerous as they used to be, but the company’s ribs live on — which should come as good news to Ruth Mintz, who’s looking for the frozen, precooked ones she used to get at Costco. Helen Moreland and Dolores Norelli found them at Walmart, and Karen Kelso reported spotting them at Target at 9725 S. Eastern

Ave.

For Nancy Shepherd, who’s looking for Durkee’s Famous Sauce, Ceci Schreiber, Ed Miller and

Ann Brown reported finding it at Albertsons; Jim Lucy saidhefoun­ditatwinco, whichhasst­oresat80n. Stephanie St. in Henderson and 6101 N. Decatur Blvd.

More on eggs Benedict: Marilyn Roth recommende­d Weiss Restaurant Deli Bakery at 2744 N. Green Valley Parkway in Henderson, which she said serves variations made

with lox or portobella mushrooms instead of ham.
