    In full disclosure, I have been concerned about the grains ordered from Azure recently. While I have ordered hundreds of pounds of grains and have never gotten dirty grain, I have not ordered since I saw numerous quality concerns in multiple online groups. Be sure you understand their policy regarding the presence of agricultural debris in their grains. Read the full policy here.
