Crikey - this is going to force me into doing the work many Americans gave up doing - I must carry on in my Mother’s footsteps in the kitchen: canning/freezing/processing local produce only. If I can’t trust my organic garlic powder from the local SDA health food store, than who can I trust???

That’s what I’m doing. I got my own raspberry, blueberry, strawberry plants. I’ve been expanding my garden. The more I can grow myself, the happier I’ll be. Too bad the growing season is so danged short in NY.

Organic garlic powder??? From a health food store???

Isn’t that a contradiction? Shouldn’t you be using fresh garlic? If I buy fresh garlic from an ordinary grocer, and you by garlic powder from a health food store, who is more natural, me or you?

Don't trust Christopher Ranch chopped garlic (in the jar). It's from China.

I avoid Organic, esp. from China. Even US organic.
Remember the green onions, spinach?
While I don't think either product was labeled 'Organic', I think organic produce would be even more likely to be contaminated.
