Call first to make sure items in stock; discount is offered to travelers

''Overwhelming'' is about the only word that Carol and Norm Heinle can use to describe the response they had from Akron-area residents at their Sausage Shoppe in Cleveland after they were featured in the Beacon Journal's food section last month.
After the story on the Sausage Shoppe appeared, the Heinles said they were inundatedwith customers to the point of running out of many items, including old-fashioned German wieners and most of the bratwurst.
Carol Heinle said that with the current price of gasoline, she and her husband felt bad that many customers made the trip and weren't able to get what they wanted. So, they are offering a discount during June as a way of making it up to them.
To get the discount, simply call the shop before you make a trip up to check on the availability of the items you want to buye. The Sausage Shoppe is at 4501 Memphis Ave., Cleveland. Call 216-351-5213.
One more market
When we ran the list of area farmers markets, we missed one in Shreve.
The Shreve Farmer's Market meets Fridays from 8 a.m. to noon in the parking lot of the Community Savings Bank on South Street. The market will be held through October, until the first killing frost.
''We meet as long as there's produce to sell,'' said organizer Velma Miller.
For more information, call Miller at 330-567-3475.
Allergy alert
If you're allergic to nuts, check your cupboards for boxes of Post LiveActive Mixed Berry Crunch Cereal.
A number of the boxes contain nuts — almonds, pecans and walnuts — but none of the boxes is marked that they contain nuts.
Kraft Foods is recalling 12,553 cases of the cereal after one customer had an allergic reaction to the nuts.
The boxes in question have a ''best when used by date'' of Dec. 17, 2008.
Anyone with nut allergies is warned not to eat the cereal and is asked to call 866-771-1511 for a refund.
