Penzey's works. There are other places that may be a bit cheaper, or
closer, whatever but not closer to me. I've been buying from Penzey's for
almost 10 years and they've been dependable and consistent. I hardly feel
I'm capricious in my buying habits there. Sounds like another troll thread
to me: never tried the product, but bash it anyway. Shame.
