When is the last time you examined your spice cabinet?

Been a little while, huh?

Well McCormick, the largest spice manufacturer on planet Earth, has issued a warning to customers asking you to check your spices. In a couple of Facebook posts, the company explained how to tell if your spices are too dang old... and it's pretty easy to tell. It turns out if your spices are in a rectangular tin or if they were packaged in Baltimore, they are a QUARTER OF A CENTURY OLD! They could be married with kids!

McCormick recommends making sure your spices have a strong aroma and taste, and a vibrant color
