Kitchen Economics – Tuscan Blend

Spread the love

Today’s lesson is Kitchen Table either Politics or Economics Or, as it happens, my personal lesson in Ingredient Sticker Shock.
Drogheria & Alimentari Organic Tuscan Herb Seasoning is such a product.

People who cook from scratch, but do take advantage of a good “blend” Everything
including the UPC Code seems to be the same.


Exactly one year ago, I ordered a “year supply” (2 bags) and the price was $10.10 each ($1.48 per ounce)
Today that same product (everything including the UPC Code is the same) is “offered” at $16.98 ($2.50 per ounce)

On a more positive note (and one those who know me may find interesting) This blend is a favorite because (a) it does not contain salt and (b) this is sort of shocking – unlike most “Italian” seasoning mixes – does not contain garlic.

The ingredients: Organic Herbs (Marjoram, Rosemary, Basil, Thyme, Savory, Oregano, Sage) are an excellent base for more nuanced mixes like a Greek/Mediterranean, Italian and a long list of other with the addition of one or two more flavors.
TIPLET: Based on average “useage” I only keep enough for two weeks “on the counter” and the remainder is “on the freezer door”
