Are Amylu sausages a local brand? I really want to add some variety into my diet. Are the available online? Especially now that things are so locked down.

They carry them here at the "Business" Costco (entirely different range of products from the regular Costco--they have a walk-through meat locker with restaurant-size cuts of meat).  This is where Amylu says you can buy them:  https://www.amylufoods.com/about-atk-foods/where-to-find

Thanks, unfortunately I don't belong to Costco and none of the other stores are near me. Drawback of living in the boonies.
