The Spice Connection

I recently took a trip to an Amish community and visited many of their stores. I love how you can buy in bulk and I could get about anything you could think of.

I found the section of spices and it would have been tempting to pick up some of their plastic bags of spices and plastic containers of spices but being that I am an Independent Watkins Associate and have been since 1982 just didn't seem right to me. In the back of my mind I was being tempted by the devil to do it, but I am very proud of my business and what products we have. I am proud of how they are made right here in Minnesota and the quality is the best. Why would anyone want to bake or cook something that doesn't use the best products for their guests or family?

I am not only talking about their stores, you can go into many other stores and find spices in plastic containers. This of course is all my own opinions and from what I have read on the subject of keeping spices fresh. I get asked this question a lot because of what I do.

What you put into food and your emotions reflects on the person who eats it, if it is made with love people know it. I love the Watkins products and the quality they represent.

I just received the May/June AARP Magazine and ran across this paragraph:
" Supermarket Guru's Spice Advice--Most spices will last 6 to 12 months, if they're stored properly. The longer they sit in the cupboard, the more likely they will lose their health benefits. So always store spices in glass jars, says Phil Lempert (aka the Supermarket Guru)-and transfer those that come in plastic to glass."

Ah, so how long have those spices been sitting on their shelves in plastic bags and plastic containers? We will never know. Furthermore, if you do buy them and have to go and buy the glass jars is that really saving you money?

Watkins spices are so fresh and put in glass jars to begin with. I don't have to worry about their freshness, plus if you are not happy for any reason the products are 100% money back guarantee. Would a grocery store do that?

I can show you how to save 25% on the products you buy from Watkins and even how to start your own home based business from one of the oldest and first home based business companies around. Watkins is still in business since 1868 and still thriving. Let me show you how.
