I, too Love Penzy's Spices . . . Lovetheir Greek Seasonings (I buy it by the envelop now!) as well as Foxpoint . . . of course, I also have many, many, many others (Balti, etc.) that I use all the time. Excellent flavors/seasoning!!

Oh my goodness! I didn't know Watkins was still around! My Dad sold Watkins in the 30s when he and mom first were married. I even have an ancient Watkins tin of Petro-Carbo salve in my 'memory cupboard.' Does anyone know what it is?

My husband uses Petro Carbo salve all the time. He has a condition on his hands where his skin thickens and in the winter, it cracks badly. He uses the salve on the areas where it cracks. We usually buy it from amazon or ebay.

Penzeys is wonderful. I used to stock up every year when I visited Pittsburgh but now we have one at our mall.

Love Penzy's. Their Vietnamese cinnamon is the very best. I also love their French Tarragon. We usually go to Houston, to the Heights store. at least every 2 years and stock up.

I, too, love Penzy's spices and have gotten my daughters hooked on them, too. Living in WI and being able to visit more than one store in around my area, I was surprised to hear how many stores there were!

I know what you mean...55 years for us.
I have ordered from Penzeys a long time, love their products.
They feature lots of customer recipes in each catalog now.
No store anywhere near us...wish there was.

Ditto here in Columbus Ohio we have a store here. You can go in and taste any of the blends. No fillers great and I buy small jars so I can go back . Love going in there. Wonderful help staff.
