I replaced all my spices/herbs/&c at no inconsiderable cost and simply ignored the over-the-top political stances of the company's founder. But as a long-time and consistent customer I cannot abide being called a "Fascist" by anyone, especially someone with whom I've spent a lot of money. I have no illusions that I'll be missed, but I'm moving on to some other quality spice provider even though it will be much less convenient to do business by mail.

There's always been an age-old debate of whether to serve cornbread dressing or stuffing. In the South it's cornbread dressing hands down all day long. That doesn't mean that all cornbread dressings are the same. You have: chicken pieces or not, sage or not, diced boiled eggs or not, soupy or dry, add some white bread or not, write your recipe out or just "eyeball" it. Of course, there is a certain rule to be followed religiously and that is to never use sweet cornbread. Then again, true Southerners would never cook sweet cornbread. With such a variation in the quality of dried sage in the stores some dressing batches use half a container of sage and some batches only require a heaping spoonful. There is a source for quality cornbread dressing seasoning that can be mailed to your home all year long. Suzy Purvis is a lady from Alabama and she knows her cornbread dressing. Actually, that's what she is known for and has won awards for it many times. Her family operates a spice business and are well-known for their breakfast sausage seasonings. I first learned of Mrs. Purvis through an on-air interview on a local radio talk show. Then I noticed the spice company name associated with the local meat market where I was buying my bulk breakfast sausage. The Spice Connection is a reliable source for consistency and high quality sage that is used in her cornbread dressing formula. There is a site that is dedicated to just the dressing packets www.https://www.dressingturkeys.com and there are recipes and hints to help you make successful dressing https://www.dressingturkeys.com/recipes I'm from the old school of "eye balling" and never writing down my measurements. But, there started to be an inconsistency to my batches mainly from the sage I was buying. I thought I would try the seasoning packet when I heard Mrs. Purvis on the radio. My first attempt at using her spice packet resulted in the best dressing I had made in a few years. Mrs. Purvis is the nicest person to correspond with through email. I had questions on how thin she makes her dressing before cooking it and she responded promptly and we carried on a nice conversation for a couple of days just talking about how the holidays used to be when the grandparents were alive and cooking. The only thing I have to say about the seasoning packet is to be sure and NOT add salt to anything you will add to the dressing mix before cooking. This especially includes the broth you use. The seasoning is more than just sage and it is pretty salty and if you add salt at every stage of prep like most cooks do the end result will probably be inedible due to over salting. Wait and add additional salt when you taste the mix before you add your raw eggs (if you add them).

To whom it may concern, I have visited your store in…read moretrussville numerous times. I was always able to find what I needed. Because of that I experienced GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE! The customer service included a very knowledgeable person who could assist me with what my needs were. Unfortunately about two weeks ago I visited the store to inquire about a product. I asked the cashier lady if she could help me with it. Quoting her she said "I don't know what you are talking about." Also she said "just go look over there you may find it." Unlike others who have helped me in the past, she was very unprofessional! To me her attitude was not to ask her anything about what I wanted. I left the store not pleased at all. Went to Golden Temple and they made it happen for me. Awesome and knowledgeable cashier! Today I decided to go back to Honey and Spice. Unfortunately I saw the same cashier in there today! I asked for a different product this time and she yells out and says "I don't know about that. You can talk with lady in the back. I said ok. So I walked towards the back the cashier yelled out that they didn't have the product. But she she had just told me she didn't know. So I'm confused as to why she would send me to the back. The young lady she sent me to was very nice and professional! She actually thanked the cashier twice for sending me to her because she actually had knowledge of what I needed. But the cashier stood behind counter and totally ignored the young lady. As a customer lm sure everyone should work as a team. From what I saw from the cashier for some reason she had a lot of unnecessary issues and attitude. It was really terrible! Don't know her name but she is black woman,stout and very unpleasant! So for the long review but I really like your store. But your cashier service needs a lot of work. She needs to be more knowledgeable, kind and understanding. Most of all respectful.

Who would've thought the semi-clad Vulcan oversees a stronghold of Eastern Orthodoxy?…read more Mediterranean-food lovers and xenophiles alike rejoice each fall, with this event coming right on the heels of Birmingham's Greek Food Festival. Baked chicken, falafel, stuffed grape leaves, and zalabieh are just some of the highlights, but don't forget the baklawa or, more deliciously, the date-filled m-a-m-o-u-l...! My favorite plate is the Nile, featuring kibbee, spinach pie, grape leaves, rice, spicy green beans, Arabic salad, and humos. And you can order MORE as sides! Beware...they sell out of zalabieh early every year. A narrated church tour elucidates a liturgy blending the essence of Jerusalem, Damascus, and Antioch, and you can pick up a censer at the market to take the "atmosphere" home with you. Highly recommended, family-friendly event, with food to die, or kill, for. You'll rock on Friday and Saturday night to Amin Sultan's crazy beat, or something's wrong with you! I'm still giving them four stars, even though I miss the stuffed squash! From their website menu, for those not in the know: KIBBEE: Finely ground very lean beef, mixed with cracked wheat, onions, pine nuts, spices, brushed with butter and baked to perfection. ROLLED GRAPE LEAVES: Ground chuck mixed with rice and spices, rolled in grape leaves and cooked in a water & lemon juice mixture until tender. BAKED CHICKEN: Half chickens marinated in lemon juice and butter, seasoned with a blend of spices, oregano, and baked to a moist golden brown. SPINACH PIE: Spinach, onions, lemon juice, olive oil, and spices wrapped in fresh yeast dough in the shape of a triangle and baked.
