Recent User Experience

We learned about this in Central America when we lived there in the 1980's We have used it in dishes of a wide variety every since. We were very happy to find it on Amazon because we have relocated to an area where these type of things are not found in the grocery markets locally.This is the same brand we were used to when living in Mexico and Central America.When the dish you desire and are trying to prepare calls for this seasoning, and you don't have it, it is either make it yourself if you can or forget the delicious food you were longing for!So, Thanks for making it available!
