Never heard of castor sugar but this reminds me of the 
fact, as I understand it, that raw sugar is illegal in the
U.S.  In England you can buy demerara sugar (wonderful
stuff) but you can't bring it into the country (raw
possibly infested agricultural product).

Anybody have a better knowledge of this law?  
As explained to me, all brown sugars sold in the U.S. are
made from refined white sugar with molasses etc. added.
