Judith, Recheck my posts where I answered this. I got that price after following the links given on this forum for what is selling on the internet as Food Grade. It is NOT the price that I have been paying at the feed store. Bill Keen

It may actually be food grade and you've simply never noticed the label. The feed stores and nurseries don't put big signs out -- there's just a small label on the bag that says "food codex grade" >> I'm sure that if they had to get it certified as Food Grade the price is >>considerably more just as it is with hydorgen peroxide Food Grade. That's a pretty big assumption on your part, especially since I just told you that I get food-grade DE for $8 for a 20 lb bag. You have absolutely no basis for throwing around the kind of numbers you did in a previous post (where you said $1.50 per oz) I appreciate your perspective, but perhaps you could try to reconsider the assumptions you've been defending so hard over the last couple of days on this list Judith
