Have you seen it recently? I was talking to Steve earlier today before posting this and he said they used to carry it but not any more. Maybe that's just at the Quinpool location?

Oh, maybe not then. I got mine in Burnside, but it was awhile ago.

Cool - I might call out there just to see. Maybe they've still got a bit kicking around.

Don't know what the price at NG is, but you can buy 'Pickle Crisp' at most grocery stores (SS, Sobeys for sure) and CT with the canning stuff. Ingredients: Calcium Carbonate.

Oh sweet - well when I eventually run out of the stuff from NG I'll probably just go to Sobeys. Thanks!

D'Oh! I knew that, I'm blaming dyslexia...
Grab a piece of chalk from the dollar store... (of course, if it were my beer, I'd just pick up some from NG).
