An FYI - National Starch is now called "Ingredion".  They still do samples as well.  They provided me with maltodextrin and agar.  Plan on using it in home cooking and I'm going to use the agar in my microbiology class as well.  I wonder how many will want to eat something made with the same solidifying agent that is used to grow bacteria!

 

 

Agar was used for human consumption long before it was adopted as a culture medium.

Agar is a very common ingredient in home cooking.
