What the heck is a grocery shrink ray it sounds like they just poured less pepper in the tin.
Compare the cost of McCormick spices with those you might buy in bulk at the local Amish market. You'll realize that you're paying about three or four times what you should. You might also realize that the product is not as fresh, not having the flavor that the bulk product might.
I would notice as I read the containers. I also look at the price per ounce on the shelf tag. Same thing with sugar. It's now a 4 lb bag instead of 5. Most don't care because nearly 50% of shoppers have EBT cards, so price doesn't matter!
Everyone should switch to cayenne pepper anyway.It takes time to get used to it because it's much stronger than black pepper,but when one does adjust it's much healthier.
I have noticed when shopping there are quite a few items that have sunk in size however the price seems to increase. 3:00 PM, I agree I've being using for three years now and the food is more flavorful.
Go to the Mexican food section, or better yet a international food store for spices. Cheaper and larger containers.
Badia is the brand that is sold in the Hispanic food sections and they are much less expensive. Bulk is good too. I make a trip to the Dover Byler's a few times a year to stock up on spices.
3:00 has made a good point about the cayenne. I know first hand how it helped my relative lower their blood pressure to the point of being able to go off of BP medicine. His wife sprinkled it on everything or would put a hot pepper in different things she cooked like soups and stews. It also helps with aches and pains. You don't even have to use a lot or enough that you can even taste it.
