I am not a spice snob, but I do know good spices when I use them, and Penzy's is good! I love the variety of spices they offer, and their hug blanket is great to send to someone who needs some TLC. Yes, you do get some political statements, but I feel the owner is entitled to his opinion. It's no different than the shop owners who won't serve gays. That owner is entitled to his/her opinion and I decide if I patronize that business. There are enough people who will support Penzys, so those who are offended by anything sent by Penzys can leave. I for one will continue ordering because they have a great product!

I quit them several years ago
I quit them several years ago for the simple reason that I did not want a dose of political discourse with my spice orders. Now I use The Spice House and am able to get great spices without a lecture. Really good house blends etc. Too bad for Penzy because I gave them a lot of business before Billy boy went ballistic!

Too Political!
They seem to be more concerned with pushing ridiculous political misinformation than selling quality spices.

When they go woke like this company did they deserve to go broke!
Keep politics out of your service to the general public.

I was trying to think of my favorite…
I was trying to think of my favorite spice - can't narrow it down to one! Vietnamese Cinnamon, Pasta Sprinkle, Smoked Paprika, Ruth Ann's Muskego Avenue Spice Blend, and the love neckband for my very favorite dog, Missy. I've used their spices for over three years and I'm sold on their quality, their customer service, their specials and offering, and speaking their minds. Thank you!

Thank You, Penzeys, for Awakening My Inner Spice Snob!
I just received my first order from Penzeys today, and I have to say—my world has officially turned upside down. Until now, I’ve never considered myself a spice snob. Whatever was on the shelf at my local grocery store was just fine…or so I thought.
First off, thank you to Kamala for stopping by Penzeys and prompting the orange guy to throw a tantrum. If it weren’t for his latest hissy fit, I might never have discovered this magical spice oasis.
Second, I’ve got to mention the hoodie I bought from Penzeys. Not only does it deliver some seriously cozy vibes, but it’s hands-down the best-smelling hoodie I’ve ever owned. Honestly, if there were a store near me, I’d pop in just to bask in the euphoria of that spice-laden aroma.
Now, onto the real game-changer: the spices themselves. Tonight, I made one of my husband’s favorite meals, something I’ve cooked at least 50 times. When he walked in, he immediately asked why it smelled so different. The only change? Your spices. Holy smokes! The flavors were deeper, richer, and made the whole meal feel so much more satisfying. I didn’t just cook tonight—I created a culinary masterpiece. And as soon as I finish this review, I’m placing another order to keep this flavor high going.
Thank you, Penzeys, for taking a stand and sparking a rebellious streak in my cooking. If it weren’t for your defiance, I’d still be slogging through life with mediocre spices.
