I purchased an item months ago and I was shocked at
the price to ship a 1oz package . So I decided I would wait until I had a few items to put together but I needed my chemicals . I was grateful for the Sausage maker to ship at very reasonable price . Also my products arrived within 3 days.

Iâââ‰â¢ve used a lot of it in making various types of salami. The date of manufacture is always a big deal to me because I want to use it all before it loses its potency.
Over 30 years I know I can absolutely trust TSM.

Quick shipping and good service. This was a difficult season for shipping and you canât blame the store for carrier delays.
