    Default Anyone Know About Buying Chilis?

    I'm talking about wholesale, in quantity. We're looking to do a fund raiser for the animal shelter and need a source for maybe up to 30 bushels of chilis for roasting.

    Anyone know of a source?

    We'd also be looking for an inexpensive roaster to purchase or possibly rent.

    I sell food for a living....If you want I could price them out for you.

    are you looking for just whole green chilies?

    Yep...that would be great! Thanks.

    (And remember...it's for a non-profit animal shelter.)

    My cost on a 25# case today is just short of $20.00. that gives you a pretty good starting point. I'll sell them to you at my cost (my company still makes 3%)

    These are for Anaheims. If you can find a local farm growing, they may be able to sell for about 60% of that ( trucking companies and packers all get their cut on the way to the distributor)

    also, I'll be swinging by restaurant depot later this week, I'll take a peak and see if they have any, and their price for you. Sometimes they have killer buys on stuff, where they are selling for less than we buy it for.

    This is why I love this place ... 5 minutes after a completely unrelated and somewhat "out there in left field" question is asked, there's the answer.

    (something tells me if I asked about the price of tea in China someone here would post a chart of the last month's tea prices along with ordering info)

    Modern liberalism is based on the idea that reality is obligated to conform to one's beliefs because; "I have the right to believe whatever I want".

    Hey, if you put up a stand, would you make sure your spelling is spot on? It seems every time I see those stands they have misspelled something major .

    If you volunteer to help, you can be in charge of spelling!
