Busy day yesterday-dentist, shopping, dog to the vet- didn't have lunch, late dinner still haven't found agar-agar check all the grocery stores close (within 25 miles,close is a relative term in Alaska) may have to wait for an Anchorage shopping trip...there are health food and whole food stores there that should carry agar-agar. Maybe next week...one day up over night in hotel make the rounds of stores see what I can find..oh and a quick trip to Costco...can't miss that lol then the 3 1/2 trip have to watch the weather, make sure the pass through the mountains is clear, should be haven't had much snow and too cold for avalanches

What's agar-agar? I googled it, but didn't really understand what it is. What will you use it for? Does it have any nutritional value, like protein or fiber in it. How far is it for you to go to Costco? The closest one to me is an hour away. There is another, in a different direction in the town I used to live (Folsom) that is about 90 minutes away. I like it better just don't like the extra hour for a round trip, but go there sometimes if I'm meeting an ex neighbor for lunch. If I were ever to move I'd have to find out how far to the nearest Costco!

@Fritzy agar-agar is sorta like a seaweed based gelatin..a thickener it's used in a lot of non-dairy (vegan) cheeses cause it stretches and melts like cheese no nutritional value at all...Costco is in Anchorage, I live on the Kenai Peninsula (Alaska) it's a 3 1/2 hour drive over the mountain range...the pass through the mountains always get more snow and when it gets warmer always the chance an avalanche will close the road (there is only one road)
