With all of the confusion of the past two weeks I forgot to summarize the
responses to my post about spices.  I was wondering about the bulk spices
in Whole Foods.  No one responded that they had any problems with the Whole
Foods spices.  Some people said that blendes of several spices should be
avoided.  Some brands that were recommended were Spice Island and Spice
Hunters.  McCormicks is OK except for the blends.

I decided to stick with Frontier spices which are sold in bulk at the local
food co-op.  I called them and was able to confirm that the blends such as
curry powder are OK.

Thanks to everyone who responded.  I think it would be hard to survivie
without this group.  I'm sure this is true for many of us!
