    Where to get citric acid in Ontario, Canada ?

    Other than ordering from Formulary or Bostick & Sullivan, where else can one source citric acid ? I'm in Ontario, Canada if Cdn members have intel.

    Check Asian or Turkish supermarkets if you have any, or contact (online) stores that carry brewery, baking or food additives. Citric acid is an extremely commonly used additive in the food & beverages industry and shouldn't be very hard to find. Photography supply stores are about the last place to look for something like this, unless you want to pay inordinate amounts of money for supposedly 'pure' materials that in fact are completely equal to what you would buy elsewhere.

    Although shipping to Canada may be prohibitively expensive, here's what a US-based textile company charges for citric acid: https://www.dharmatrading.com/chemic...id-powder.html
