Anndrea, this is what you posted:
The place I want to buy from has 500mg and 1000mg softgels that
contain the following per 2 softgels:
500mg:
80mg EPA
120mg DHA
200mg Omega-3 fatty acids

And this is what Jaimie posted:
Per softgel:

Calories 10
Calories from Fat 10
Total Fat 1 g 2%*
Saturated Fat 0 g 0%
Polyunsaturated Fat 0.5 g **
Monounsaturated Fat 0 g **
Cholesterol 0 mg 0%
Fish Oil 1,000 mg (1 g) **
EPA (Eicosapentaenoic Acid) (Omega-3) 300 mg **
DHA (Docosahexaenoic Acid)(Omega-3) 200 mg **
*Percent Daily Values are based on a 2,000
calorie diet.
**Daily Value not established.

Other Ingredients: Gelatin, Glycerin, d-Alpha Tocopherol. Contains
fish (sardine, anchovy, mackerel, salmon, herring) ingredients. Made
from the oils of cold water, deep sea fish. Marine Lipid Concentrate.

If these two descriptions refer to the same product it's no wonder
there's confusion. Buy the product as described by Jaimie, 1000mg
per softgel. Maybe we should let Puritan know that their catalog is
not very helpful!

Sorry for all the hoops. Look at them as a learning experience.
