Caper capers

[Belmit]

I'm going a bit cooking mad at the moment and have bought a couple of cookbooks - Gordon Ramsey's 'Fast Food' and '...Makes it Easy'. Armed with a list of ingredients, some of which I'd never bought before and some I'd never heard of, I went to the supermarket after work.

Ten minutes in and I'd got pretty much everything on the list, including live basil and coriander, and pine nuts (took me a while!). Only two things remained; Tahini and capers. Finally found the Tahini in the intolerant section along with the terrible Gillian McKeith branded guff, but capers were nowhere to be found. It was then that I realised that I didn't really know what capers were, although I thought I did.

After almost texting someone to ask what they were (akin to asking for directions, but not even as manly as that), I had a brief flash of inspiration and walked straight to them, or rather the item next to them.

I was just wondering how many people here knew where to find them in the average supermarket. If you know, great (don't give the game away!), if not, have a guess. I'll be interested to hear what you think. Afterwards I'll tell you where I looked , and how I found them.
