## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can you use this instead of bactoferm t-spx**
A: I have substituted Flavor of Italy with other cultures . Important to follow each cultures grams vs weight of meat ratio which will
most likely be different than current recipe .  2 Guys and Cooler (you tube ) have great video on Flavor of Italy recommend watching . Their website has great recipe to follow .

**Q: Must be always freezed? i'm traveling to us, can i buy it fly back to my country?**
A: I believe you’re fine.  It’s not shipped frozen or insulated and it holds up well.  So a flight of even several hours should be ok.

**Q: The pic is an out of date package. Is that what I can expect?**
A: No.  You will receive a batch with (typically) at least 6 months.  But frozen they can last much longer

**Q: Do we need to use pink salt for curing also with this product.?**
A: Yes. Cure #1 if less than 30 days or Cure #2 if going over 30 days.
