Oh you know, I like to keep up on the times lol
Last I checked it takes about 13 babies to make baby powder, got to let them lay out in the sun to dry them out(also give that "fresh" smell) then after just grind them up. Easy peasy

They just have a bad rep. I'm from PA myself but I still won't buy them.

I think that you're right. Just a rumor from the old days.

Just like if you did some things as a teenage boy, you would need glasses.....

API specs are the same. Good buy in a 5 gallon bucket. Don't know who the manufacturer is but what does that matter? Brand loyalty may have meant something years ago but in today's world oils are just a commodity. Even name brand companies outsource from the same places including each other!
