I guess cotton seed meal, is cotton seed meal; or can there be a difference?

Okay here it the deal they sell organic cotton seed meal sometimes.
This is real expensive.
Now think about where a cotton seed is located.
Inside a husk inside cotton and there is no way this seed can be effected by anything.
And you are right I think I was over pricing what I paid for it to.
More like 10 to 12 dollars.
So yes meal is meal.
It is just packaging.

To further drive the nail home they do the same thing with many other products.
Pickling lime, same as builders lime, AKA quick lime.
They just stamp food grade on it.
Naphtha same as zippo lighter fluid.
Bug and tar remover, same as kerosene.
Honing oil same as mineral oil.
Colman lantern fuel same as white gas.
The list is a long one I know what stuff is and I will buy it in the least expensive manner I can.
