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.

  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"

  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
