When did Pickling Lime get so expensive?

[Vincerama2]

I can't find it at Walmart anymore, and online, it's selling for crazy prices. The cheapest is a 6 pack for $25. It used to be like, a 2 bucks/pound at Walmart. Even crazier are the higher prices ... like $20 for a pound of the same stuff that someone else is selling the 6 pack for $25! LOL

I guess they figured us out...or there's a pickle craze!

Wow, OK that bulk food place certainly has better prices! Maybe get some other stuff to get cheaper shipping!

Coronavirus hit... now there's a huge demand for "homesteading" supplies.
