Great find!  Having never seen it, I have to ask stuff like what colour is
it?  and does it taste a bit different?  How does the texture compare, etc.
Please keep us posted on what you do with it and how the results differ (or
not) from regular sugar.  At that cost I am sure it will be judiciously used
so we probably won't hear anything till you have something special to
prepare.
