Glad i could bring some humor to the board

I know that when i was in the states there were many things that you couldn't purchase there that you can here, so I'm sure that it would be the same the other way around.

Esmithii that sounds great, I would appreciate that. When do you plan on being in Toronto next?

Just out of curiousity is pickeling salt the same as pickeling lime? I doubt it, but just thought i would ask.

No, afss. Pickling lime is calcium hydroxide. Pickling salt is something completely different. I believe it's got alum in it. If that's not right, it's salt with lots of spices added.

Heck, I'm just guessing, but I don't think they're the same thing at all!

the stuff i saw looked like rock salt, no spice, didn't think it was the same, just kinda hoping it was

Pickling salt is coarse unfinished salt much like Kosher salt and is used for its slow disolving rate so it slowly pickles your vegies as the brine gets stronger

Scott,

Drop me an e-mail. I will be in Toronto the 1st of October. Let me know about where you live, how much you want, and we can hook up.
