Dear Vicki,
I had the same problem getting pills to powder. I used my rolling pin
and plastic bags. Then I bought a mortal and pestle, grind them up like
the old time doctors did.
Works fine, and can usually be purchased from health food stores, antique
dealers, or from cooking supply houses.
Good Luck
Marilyn at Ledoux Hospice.
