Don't sleep on store brand spices - I was so wrong

I used to swear by the name brand spices and thought the store brand would be watery or fake tasting. Then I did a blind taste test with my roommate using cumin and paprika from Aldi - 3 out of 4 people picked the store brand as better. Am I the only one who wasted money on fancy labels for years?

I read that Aldi actually uses the same suppliers as McCormick for most of their spices.

Oh man that makes so much sense, I've always thought their spices tasted just as good lol.

Wait, same exact suppliers or just the same type of suppliers?
