Spice spam



Got this in my e-mailbox this morn:

Cooks, epicureans and foodies can now manage their spice cabinets via the Internet like many consumers who have turned to the Web to balance their checking accounts, check their stocks and control their music libraries.

It seems the good folks at Spice Islands recently decided to launch an online program, Register Your Spice, "to empower cooks to get the most mileage out of their spices while the goods are still good."

The new site, located at www.spiceislands.com, is a proactive portal that makes sure that cooks know the freshness levels of their spices at all times and also sends cooks recipes to utilize their spice purchases in new, interested ways.

The (spice) rub is that, when replacement time approaches, the site distributes an e-mail reminder to "encourage cooks to use the spice or replace items for the utmost freshness."

Their dried spices, of course. Couldn't you just...I dunno....taste them?
