Looking for specialized baby food store in LA (Bellflower or anywhere) (Los Angeles: cost, stores)

[dokidok]

We are visiting LA for about a month. So far we couldn't find the baby cereal Milupa. Some Nestle products will be OK too. We are surprised that the market is dominated by Gerber and there are no other brands presented. The baby has never been picky about food, but for some reason refuses to eat Gerber products. We've already tried 3-4 different types of Gerber baby cereal and no one of them works.

Do you know any store in LA selling Milupa or Nestle baby cereal?

Thanks!

maybe Babys-R-Us? They're in Cerritos off South St east of the 605

Thanks for the suggestion. I already checked toysrus website and couldn't find what I am looking for.

Where are you going to be staying in LA? There are tons of stores around here and I can't believe there is something that can't be found! Nestle's NA headquarters is in Glendale!

I just went to their website and noticed that they export this stuff to Bulgaria, Armenia, etc. You possibly can find it at some of the larger Armenian and middle-eastern markets. In Glendale, you could check Golden Farms or Super King. There is also a Sunland Produce in Sunland that carries a lot of imported foods.

Also, have you checked Whole Foods? They have locations all over the city.

Thanks for the answer.
We are in Bellflower and don't know any markets around.
We were thinking to check some local markets like Polish or German markets.
Yes, we did check wholefoods for Milupa, but couldn't find it.
Do you know any Nestle store close to Bellflower?
We will check Golden farms and Super king as well.

Los Angeles has about a hundred zillion trillion ethnic supermarkets. Many of them are quite large but only have a handful of locations. Glendale has a large Armenian population so we get a lot of goods that are considered "gourmet" in other places but just "our supermarket" here. LOL! Beverly Hills and Hollywood have a large Middle Eastern population plus Santa Monica has a lot of Brits.

I know Bellflower has a large ethnic population too but I think it's very mixed from what I've read. I don't know what kind of markets they have but I'm sure it's probably like this area.

You might try contacting the company to see if they sell to anyone in California. If they don't, then I think Nestle would be your next good bet.

Also, we have Trader Joe's and Fresh & Easy but I think they both carry of lot of things under their own labels. You might bring the ingrediant label and compare it to the ingrediants they have in their products.

Another place I just thought of is Cost Plus World Markets. They have a lot of stores and an imported food section.
