Bill, I'm glad to hear you say that. By virtue of my desire to hand feed, I've got my fingers in this stuff every day. I've opened new bags that were a slightly different color before, usually darker, but I always just assumed that the color variation was due to freshness....so much for what I thought I knew.
This last bag however, is markedly different. Different color, different texture, different smell, different labeling, different qualities during hydration....
I just think I've handled too much of it to not notice a change. Something's different. Now I just want to find out if this change will impact my fish, and to what degree.
