Dinosaur Cinnamon!
I just excavated Cinnamon, packed in 1996, from the depths of my spice cabinet. Where it came from is anyone's guess -- it predates my homemaking days by 4 years! Thank goodness I have a fresh bottle of McCormick Cinnamon at the forefront of my cabinet.
Thank you!! -- Helen

Another Old Spice Story
My wife and I started to make a pumpkin pie and got curious about the age of our spices. Boy,were we supprised.Thanks to your site's date finder we found our cloves were packaged on 9/13/1982 and the ginger was dated 10/14/1981.Needless to say we'll replace them but we're keeping the old ones as family heirlooms. -- Jeff Deutsch

Pumpkin Pie Spice - older than me!
When I saw the McCormick's ad to check the date of your spices, I knew I had to go on a hunt in my mom's cabinets! She did not disappoint. I found 4 jars and 4 tins over 15 years old. In fact, the Pumpkin Pie Spice had a date of 1977, the year before I was born! This spice challenge is pure genius. Love it! -- Tricia

Pre-dates my marriage...
My 2 oldest spices were from 1980! I got married in 1981, so these must have come from either my mother's or my in-laws' kitchen. WOW. Out they go! -- Della
