It's all about convenience.

I still make my own rubs and we use old jars to keep them in and label them, or old spice bottles.

Sometimes you can't always just get bulk to mix. There's also premade rubs or blends that are actually really tasty. I know when I buy any of that type of stuff I always at the ingredient list, but a lot of them will be deceptive and just put spices on it so you don't know all of the ingredients. If I've not ever had it before, and there's an accurate list of the spices, I have a pretty good idea of what it's going to taste like, so I'll give it a shot.

Some of the pre-made stuff just has a very specific flavor. I buy McCormick's California style garlic pepper, and there's no way I can recreate just what it tastes like, but that's pretty much my go-to for whatever because it's fairly neutral. I also love all of the Paul prudhome blends, specifically the black and red fish magic. I mean I've got the damn recipe because I have four or five of his books, but it'll be on sale and it's just easier for me to grab a bottle of that.

The Badia and the Goya All purpose seasonings are just cheap enough where I'm not having a screw around mind bulk and mixing it. Same thing with that garlic pepper, I can get a big bottle of it for $8, and it'll last maybe a quarter of the year.

If it works it works.

Most of the time when we're cooking I'm blending different stuff, unless I'm using a pre-made deal. I also just like to try new things to see if maybe somebody's come up with a new blend that will knock your socks off.

I know probably one of the best blackening seasonings I ever had was some small company that made voodoo powder. I don't remember the name of the brand. I only ever got one bottle, and I don't even know if they're still in business. Think I got it at a Farmers market up in Charleston, and I want to say it was maybe local to the city. I might still have the empty bottle somewhere keeping it just to try to remember the ingredients. It's the only blackening seasoning that's ever made a run for the money against the Prudhomme stuff.

Again it's convenience and also consistency. Sometimes it's tough to dial in the proper ratios of different spices unless you're willing to just fully experiment. I really ought to write my blends down as far as weights, especially if I come up with a good one, but I pretty much just eyeball stuff, and we're happy. There are just some spices out there that have a very specific flavor and you want that with whatever meal.

If you use the Lowery's, you really ought to check out the McCormick's California garlic pepper. He would probably really enjoy it. Just ordered a big bottle of Amazon, or you should be able to find it in the grocery store no problem. It's got a green top, but it's wonderful for all purpose.

An FOH food derail was probably the only entertaining thing about discussing this abomination, and I'm always happy to contribute, because that's what the Doctor orders....😉

I use spice blends here and there. Some of them are downright tasty. The expensive ones with dumb names are the new IPA douche rush. $28 for $3 worth of shit, but hey! You get an edgy company name and fancy product label to go with it.

Cracks me up are these giant spice racks filled with dead, old spices. No smell, no taste...but cute shakers OMG.

I get the gustos vitae spices all the time as gifts. They are pretty darn delicious and generally no or little salt, so it’s not filler. I wouldn’t ever buy them myself, but use them all the time at the price of free.

No. It's actually pretty fucking stupid. She's not saved by Prince but instead is kissed by the fucking bandit leader. Avoid this movie. It's pure trash.

If you have kids, in my opinion, don't let them see this trash fucking movie. Don't need the next generation thinking this bullshit is Snow White. Stick with the classic animated movie or if you want an actual good rendition of a Snow White movie, watch "Mirror Mirror".

Spice blends are always so weird to me. If you're using them, you're at least competent enough to be cooking.

Why do I need some asshole to mix a bunch of spices together and upcharge me for it? A lot of things you can't even fuck up. I make my own rubs all the time. Salt, pepper, cumin, cayenne, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder. Just mix a sensible amount of each and tada, you're done. And those ingredients are basically the same ones used in literally every spice mix. Adjust levels of each and you can make a rub for ribs, taco seasoning, or fajita seasoning. Swap out shit like basil, oregano, tarragon, etc, if it's for something that's not red meat.

The only premade one I use is Lawry's garlic salt. That shit is magic, and other garlic salt doesn't compare. Grilling literally any meat? Just add some garlic salt and done.

Once I started losing weight I began to make my own spice mixes because every last single one of the pre-made had god damn sugar in them.

I can't wait for the porn parodies. They will have a much better plot and acting than the original movie

You put sugar in spices, specifically rubs if you're smoking meat and want that nice bark, the sugar is what gives it that bark while also cooking the sugar out (not completely so experiment if you don't already)but for pretty much anything else...yeah, doesn't need fucking sugar in it.

I will put brown sugar in my chicken rub...other than that, no thank you
I mean honestly why does my taco seasoning need sugar? Or my Seasoned Salt?
That is what pisses me off, Like you said, I could see it in something like a rub but they just add it to EVERYTHING because it is addictive and serves no purpose other than that

So I live in Taiwan, and the hate for this movie is multicultural. Disney is pushing ads all over social media here, and every comment section (all Mandarin) is full of "Snow Brown", "The Queen is prettier", "I hope the queen wins", "Not so white anymore".
