Dave,
Mae Ploy is also an excellent brand (their sweet chilli sauce is also very
good) with a solid reputation, although I have not personally tried their
pastes. Hm, I might have to change that - now I am curious.
Anyway, it's good to hear you can get Maesri brand, but either way, you
are
a winner.
Enjoy!
