Questions and Answers

is this product from China?
Is this okay for keto diet?
Is this product halal
The content weight is 2.5lbs but total shipping weight for this product is 3.2lbs? Is the packaging that heavy?
Why does the 1lb bag state organic and the 2.5lbs bag doesn’t?

Don’t know but I’ve tried it. Monk fruit is better

Halal, if I am correct, has to do with meat. This product comes from plants.
They add air-balloons in it to make sure its safe/not tears (not sure if this its actually necessary), but I don’t think it adds so much to the total weight. I never weighted it though.
