is

If we don't have a letter for it in the library, it's not legal, as far

as I'm concerned. (Which is one reason I'm annoyed with a couple of

companies who haven't gotten back to me on some items I have found useful

and THINK may be legal.)

Is Spice Island the same as Frontier because I found a whole line of garlic,onion,etc. but wasn't sure if it's legal.  It's not that easy to find around here.  I think it was at Rice Epicurean but I'd have to check my notes.

Wow, I guess I'll research it because I was so happy to find this nearby and have been slowly replacing my spices because they cost a little more.  So I guess mom gets them? 

 

Anyone know for sure because otherwise I'll have a long wait to go find Penzey's ;-).

I don't think Spice Island is legal. I ended up ordering a new batch of spices from Penzey's. It was a bit of an investment, but they last a long time. I still cook other non scd food for my family and I use the old spices when I cook dishes I can't eat anyway.

I love Penzey's spices anyway.PJ > > > >do any spices besides garlic powder have added

Most individual spices that are a decent quality are legal.

It's usually just the onion and garlic that they stick anti-caking stuff

in.

Now, I wouldn't use an el-cheapo brand. You can order spices from

Penzey's on-line if there isn't a store in your vicinity. Although if you

get a chance to visit a store, it's a sensory delight.

Thanks ;-).  Someone recently posted about a new Penzey's in the Heights area of Houston.  I haven't been up there but it will definitely be more fun than going to the mall for me lol.

I love Penzey's and am lucky

enough to have one about five minutes from my house. I use several of

their spices with no problems. I was sad to find (at least at my

location) that none of their vanilla was legal. I ended up having to go

to Whole Foods.

Yes, when I first started SCD, I was very sad to find out that my beloved

double-strength vanilla wasn't SCD-legal.
