Many thanks!

P.S. But not "Top Op" brand.  Despite looking like pieces of pure asaf

What's "Top Op" brand, Phil? The shop search just shows (me) their own brand, whole and powdered - but that's it?

Photograph later (camera downstairs, I and office up), but basically the tub (white, pink label, green top)  reads "Top Op // HING // WHOLE // ASAFOETIDA WHOLE".  Time for yet another complaint to the ASA, I fear ...

Doesn't seem to be on the site anymore. Does it look like chunks too?Then I can't be sure that their own housebrand is necessarily the pure resin either - and am a bit shocked. Fake whole asafoetida?

Top OP rings a bell now, after an imagesearch. Have some gum arabicum from this brand somewhere, I think.

This one : 
The version sold by Amazon has a different label to avoid more complaints to the ASA !

And the content really looks like whole resin, not powder, right? That's shocking!

Sad but true.  See below.

Totally mind-boggling! Would make sure to contact TOP OP too. Very scammy.
