I think IJA's claims for Museum Digital are valid, if a little
overheated. 

I also like Entrada Natural. I don't find it "flaking," I find it
dusty, perhaps not cut or packaged cleanly. I think it's fine if you
blow each sheet off with air or dust with a cloth before inserting. A
hassle, of course. I've read somewhere that Moab has addressed this,
but I've not ordered any recently.
