That's the one. Totally illegal for use with maple in all jurisdictions of the U.S. and Canada. It actually does add some ions, as it is an ion-exchange resin. I've spoken with the gentleman who placed the ad. Hopefully he won't be trying to sell them any longer.

Well he is advertising in the Maple News. Do we all need to show our displesure with the paper for allowing such advertising? Can he call his buisness Pure Maple products:mad: It is in the November December issue.

I beleive an ad in the Maple News runs automatically for two or three issues, or two or three months. So he may have taken Dr. Tim's advice but we still see the ad.

I suppose a simple phone call to the guy will tell all we want to know. Maybe another thing we will need on our labels is the word Unadulterated. I only mean this as a way of ensuring that this prosess is not allowed to continue or work its way into the industry.
