I found this 50 pound bag to be the most economical way to purchase. Since we use it in various ways to battle hard water, I prefer to have a quantity on hand. The 50 pounder comes double bagged; the outer bag being a tough paper, like a feed sack, and the inner one is a fairly strong clear plastic. I purchased a 5 gallon bucket with lid to store it, but unfortunately it overfilled my new bucket. The only problem I had was the product was "clumpy", which made it difficult to pour; I assume this is from humidity. If I had to do over, I would have dropped the entire bag on concrete repeatedly before tearing open the outer wrapper to break up the big chunks. Shipping was fast, as was response to my questions.

I use citric acid for everything: it rinses dishes, cleans rust off metal, makes my hair shiny and soft after I wash it in baking soda, it gets that slimy feeling out of the dog dishes (their saliva actually has harmful pathogens so I like getting them really clean), gets rust out of the sink drain...I add a little to the laundry. It sanitizes my cutting board without using bleach. The price is great because I use a lot.

Absolutely great item. Use it in my bathbombs and it works great ! I also like the price of course, and the fast order processing from Bulk Apothecary !

I tried this to use with the mms protocol, Since the pre-mixed solutions were too expensive, and the packets of citric acid were hard to dissolve entirely, I tried your product, and wow! For those who are familiar with Jim Humble's MMS, it's much more cost-efficient to purchase the raw materials and mix them yourself, than to buy the pre-packaged product. And this citric acid is the best quality as well as best priced product I've found anywhere! I'm going to purchase more and learn what all else I can do with it!

I use citric acid in decongestant shower fizzies. They're a must have during the winter!
Mix well 1 part citric acid, 2 parts baking soda. I use a dust mask while using citric acid just because it tickles my throat if I don't.
