Season Liberally

Señora has a bit of an addiction problem with Penzeys Spices.  Well, the truth is that I have a bit of a problem with her Penzeys habit.  I collect lint balls, she collects spices. Whenever they have a sale she is down there.  I frequently feel that we are drowning in spices.

I did find the back of her most recently purchase interesting, however.  Even though I agree with the sentiments expressed on the label, I am generally of the opinion that businesses should keep their politics and religion to themselves. There are several business that I try to avoid due to their politics or religious sentiments, e.g., I never, ever eat at Chick-fil-A.

Her current purchase is labeled Outrage whose ingredients are:  Salt, black pepper, red pepper, citric acid, shallots, lemon peel, white pepper, garlic, green onion..

In case you cannot read the back of the jar in the photo:

The ongoing Republican effort to end our democracy is Outrageous. The party’s purge of those disloyal to the January 6 plotters is even worse. When does a party end and fascism begin? When good people give up on being Outraged. Your love is strong; use it to keep Outrage alive.

Outrageously good on avocados, eggs, fish, vegetables, salads, chicken, hummus, sandwiches, and cheeseburgers.

Season Liberally

Just another day in the extremely divided USA.

  1. Wow, that’s the strongest label statement I’ve ever seen. Can’t say I disagree, but I definitely avoid businesses known to support the Dark Side (e.g., Chick-Fil-A, Home Depot, Tesla, etc.). I’ll have to get us some of that seasoning!

  2. Do they have a bigger bottle? I’m afraid that little bottle might make me be too conservative!

Don't be shy, reply
