    Yes, same powders made by ADI but could be batch to batch differences (like any powder)

    I've generally found 2225 works out slightly cheaper, as it's sold metric (500gms, 1Kg, 5Kg) vs Retumbo in the US 1lb etc etc sizes. From what I've seen locally, when they are on the shelf side by side the prices are comparable per container but the 2225 gives you a little more per can.

    Having said that, the main thing these days is availability it would seem so you take what you can get!

    If you haven't already come across it, this chart is handy to have saved
