LKK never made an oyster sauce in 240gram jar,. It's always been
LKK Panda Brand or LKK premium (with the gondola on the front).
They BOTTLES came in various sizes, but none were 240g. jars.

Oyster FLAVORED sauces are less than 50% oyster extractive's. LKK
premium is still 50%+ oyster extractives, but it's too sweet. I use
the Panda brand. Makeru (sp?) and Dynasty also make premium oyster
sauces. You just live out in the boonies.

Buy the Panda brand. It works fine, but is still sweet. I made
Oyster Beef Broccoli w/shrimp with it last night.
