Penzeys Spices

[Roadtrip]

Penzeys fan here too... I ge all my stuff in plastic bags and use my own containers. I've found that using good quality fresh spices you actually use less spice as well.

Yeaaaaa Penzeys!!!!

I love Penzeys. They are a great company run by great people. I urge everyone to sign up for their catalog. It's free, they don't sell their subscriber list to anyone, it always has recipes, and frequently has a free coupon for something. There really isn't anything to not like about that.

The blends can be expensive, but the single spices are actually really affordable. Like someone else mentioned, the bulk bags are the way to go for things that you know you like.

My favorites are toasted onion powder, garlic powder, Hungarian sweet paprika (I didn't know paprika had a flavor until I tried this), Vietnamese and Ceylon cinnamon, Mexican vanilla extract, Dutch process cocoa, and ancho chili powder. And everyone should just suck it up and buy Fox Point. Seriously, it's the best blend. It's good on everything.

one of my traditional solstice gifts to all three of my grown kids is a shopping spree of up to x dollars (amount varies depending on our personal economy) at Penzeys. It is about 45 minutes from us, so we combine the trip to Penzeys with a lunch out. It is one our favorite traditions, both solstice and non whenever anyone comes to visit.

Since two of my three children will be here to help out after surgery in June, I feel another Penzeys trip coming on. Love their stuff, especially the various cinnamons and vanilla beans.
