    Rechecked the bag for the Natures Own and actually it says

    "The Premier Pellet Corporation. Montreal, Quebec
    Made in America"

    Is this Energex blend?

    Geek, those "should" be Stove Chows in your bag. All hardwood.

    Oh, I misunderstood. I'll see if I can post a pic. Your asking a lot, though, because that means I have to talk to my wife. I don't have a pocket computer and my cellphone isn't capable of doing that. I won't get to it tonight, but will try tomorrow.

    That is a tough cross to bare. You should get a smoothie mailed to you as compensation

    "Should" may be the right word but I tell you, this brand burns much better in my picky Napoleon, no clinkers...:)

    This is what my Canadian Natures Own look like. To me they look like FSU's, which is what we all assume they are. Not the best pic, but hope it will do.

    Now that I viewed this on my pc (and not my phone), those "look" like the Chows/Energex I've burned..... that's crazy, if those are FSU's they are really way darker than I remember. I burned a bag from my new stash but don't remember what they looked like exactly.

    My FSU's are barried, But they look like the CA NO to me.

    My NO are a bit lighter and not as many small/shorties as the FSU's. No chows to compare them to, Haven't seen chows in a few seasons.

    Both the FSU's and NO's USA batch burn about the same though. Good solid middle of the roader, Decent heat. A bit ashy but not outrageous. Fines and dust are better than average. But then I did pay much less(50%) for the NO's so I like em better with the dollar factor adding in. :p

    Here you go, fireside on the left and chow on the right. FSUs are smaller and a bit darker. The firesides are from an FSU bag dated 08-15, the chows are from a TSC bag dated 09-13.
