Thanks for the heads up. I bought a bottle of Mrs. Dash and it was
truly horrid.

I actually haven't been to Costco in at least 15 years. I swore I
would not return until I finished off all of the pointless impulse
buys that I had made there. The last item: a large bottle
(originally part of a two pack!) of seasoned salt.

Mrs. Dash is horrid to me, too. But then again, I thought Emeril's sucked
big-time; and I guess it's a big-seller.
