Even here in Yucca Valley, about 150 miles east of you, at Vons, Stater Bros and WalMart, shelves are frequently bare of pasta (aside from the less used shapes like orzo), what’s available, if any, are the wheat alternative versions. If one shops early on delivery days one has more or less unlimited choice.
