I recently contacted Northwest Natural Products, Inc. about
two of their products, the Lil' Critters Gummy Vites and
Gummy Vitamin C & Echinacea dietary supplements.  They are
available at many large discount stores such as Costco,
Albertsons, Kmart, Ekerd, Sav-on Drugs, CVS, Target and
more.  Check retail location on their website:
www.gummybearvitamins.com under the "where to buy" tab.

Here is the response from the company:
