Re: Spice Girl (about packaging )

Are those spices legal then individually? I've noticed they have started

carrying them at Randall's (Safeway) in the last couple of months.

Thank you,

Debbie,

Single, not mixed spices from Frontier and Simply Organic are legal.

Examples: basil, rosemary, oregano, cloves, cinnamon

Not legal are any mixtures like steak or apple pie spices that contain more than

one

ingredient.

You can combine them at home to make a mixture.
