I tried to find some talcum powder a while back so I didn't have to use regular baby powder.
Couldn't do it because none of the grocers/pharmacies carried it. All the baby powder was the corn starch stuff.
Talcum has been linked to some lung damage, or something, which is why I suspect it is off the shelves.

Sprinkling a 'mmmmm good' food product, such as corn starch, all over your tent might be a problem.

I quit doing it.
