Local Asian store says Agar FDA banned?
    #23511956 - 08/05/16 08:13 AM (7 years, 5 months ago)

I just went an hour out of town to try to find agar. The lady knew exactly what I was looking for, she said agar agar powder? I said yes and she said it's been discontinued because FDA banned it because it's sourced from Japan?

Any truth to this or lady just talking shit?

Wow.  Nothing like a crazy Asian lady making up crazy make believe stories. 

Maybe she kept all the agar for herself and grew the best mushrooms in the world because this lady is obviously high.

haha yeah, asians dont grow mushrooms on agar, they eat the damn agar :lol:

the reason sounds fucked tho, I'm not american but I havent heard of any embargos against japanese food or stock. Agar's just seaweed anyway.

never seen any in my local Walmarts. i tried 3 different ones that are near me. None had agar, in any form. actually no local stores around me had agar, at all. i had to get telephone brand packets online.. there is one more asian grocery store that is about 25min from me that i need to try still, though.

Usually its in the asian area.

Ive never seen any at walmart and their website doesnt list any of the agar for in store pickup and its in bulkquantity at a ripoff of a price.

Only an asian place wont rip you off. Everyone else is going to rape your supple ass.

Try whole foods or another health store. Theyll rape you too but theyll have it. Or try going back to the asian place when that bitch isnt there

Just spoke to a local oriental market, according to them, the telephone brand is in short supply in some areas because shipments are being inspected due to suspicion of drugs. Customs or whoever the inspecting agency is, has reason to believe the Telephone brand, being a white powder, may be used to traffic narcotics. This is holding up shipments and is why the price of Telephone brand has gone up ~40% at their store.

Take this with a grain of salt, but stocking up may be a good idea, just in case.

If there was some that did have narcotics they wouldn't make it to a store. They make it over the border then someone would want that package before it got to a distribution center.

I get telephone agar for under a dollar a pack (25g) at my Asian grocery store
