Pelrad -- I know, I know -- one of my major challenges in moving to Wyoming was just finding INGREDIENTS! But all of a sudden a few months ago our local grocery store started carrying frozen green chile. Bueno brand, just what I used to get in New Mexico when the stuff I'd had roasted and frozen ran out before the new harvest. So, it's out there.
What part of the world do you live in? Maybe you can ask your grocer to order it?

And BTW, 'spaw -- my Dad used to make scrapple every now and then, over the stringent objections of my mother, who just knew that one plateful would make her a widow. I liked it and couldn't understand what she found so objectionable. (This was before I heard or cared about cholesterol. Now, I understand that scrapple is Ye Olde Heart Attack on el Plate. Still ....)
