This product is terrific. August 27, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase
I ordered four ONE POUND bags of this product and was extremely impressed by the way it was packaged. Very tightly packaged with very thick plastic. None of it had spilled or leaked during shipping. Furthermore, the product worked great for my project (tanning some animal skins). The price was right too. Barry Farms does a terrific job. I will certainly continue to order this and other products of theirs in the future. This was my first order with them, and I certainly will recommend them to others.

Aluminating July 30, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase
Good 1lb of Alum, food grade. The arrival date was a bit disheartening, set for the earliest more than 30 days after ordering, however it arrived within 2 weeks. I am using this Alum to make wallpaper paste: just google "care2 wallpaper paste". I have since checked out the Barry Farms Website, they have many quality products (also available on Amazon). In fact, I have already ordered two more products from them for use in preserving and yoghurt making. Needless to say selecting this product illuminated the world of Barry Farms, with all the good quality they have to offer.

Fast and prompt service
I was supposed to get the product shipped to me in a week and it came in 3 days. This was the second time I bought from Barry farms and I have been impressed both times.

Expensive shipping
The price of the product was VERY good, but it took to a long time to arrive and the cost of shipping was excessive.
