This particular blend of "cajun" spice is unique and not overpoweringly hot. I use this spice on everything I cook, be it scrambled eggs, fish, meat, or even steamed vegies. Its a staple "go to" in my house and in both my kid's houses. Thanks Chilly Chillies for stocking as prior to finding your on-line store I had to stock up my suitcase every time I went to FLA and made for some interesting chats with CBSA. LOL!
