Is there any real difference between powdered, reconstituted, and non-reconstituted? (I know the websites who sell the non-reconstituted would have you believe theirs is best, but it's pricey!)
My co-op stopped carrying the Maxi-something brand of liquid seaweed in their retail store. Fortunately, my neighbor works on the "real farmers side" of the store, and he's checking to see if they can get me a gallon special-ordered. But in case they can't, I've started researching my mail-order options.
It seems that many places sell wettable powder form of seaweed and/or fish emulsion, some (like Golden Harvest Organics) put a lot of other stuff in their powder, too. The powder is generally cheaper, and is obviously cheaper to ship.
Don't laugh (at least not too loud), but the only analogy I can think of is orange juice: obviously fresh-squeezed tastes best; never frozen or reconstituted is a distant runner-up, and the powdered stuff is dead last. But that's from a taste perspective, not from a nutritional standpoint - help, please!!!!!
