... and they want their HTML1 back. I am looking at you, Penzey's. <rant> I hate this website. I think it every time I have to use it. I want to call up and say "Look, I will code you a new web catalog. Really. It isn't that hard." I want to buy inferior, grocery store spices to save myself the annoyance of dealing with this interface. Hate hate hate. </rant> I just can't help it. I had to get that off my chest. I end up placing a massive order once a year or so in order to not have to order anything else the entire year. --Lisa |

On the other hand, the hideous abuse of flash, javascript, ASP and mysql that is the sur le table website is a lot worse. At least at penzeys.com, you can actually complete an order. |

Agreed. Sur La Table has it's own problems - it's a bandwidth hog and much more pretty than functional. But the Penzey's website just annoys me. How about actual categories in the drop down? That would be a simple fix! If you search for "Penzey's Sausage" on Google you get a result page with all the sausage seasonings. However, their search doesn't work that well - you have to leave the site. And shopping for "Spices A-E" is really not efficient. --Lisa |

And I use ,http://www.savoryspiceshop.com. Of course I can go directly to one of their stores, since they blanket the Denver metro area, but I like their quality better than Penzy. |

I've been shopping from myspicesage.com . They've had the more unusual spices when Penzey's did not. I like their quality and their plastic bags, easy to freeze. And the shipping is free. I agree with you about Penzeys. I wrote to them about it a few years back after being completely frustrated. I end up doing as Lisa, ordering only once a year mainly for their granulated garlic. |
