Royal Rumble Spicy popcorn provided by a user who turns their nose up at prepackaged spices/Hot sauce. Proceeds to get the squirts when the Owner of Hot Squeeze replies.

Selling premade sauces and rubs is not preying on naivety. Jesus, my grocery store sells broasted chickens...it's not because people are too stupid to realize a raw chicken plus time in an oven makes a broasted chicken.
good luck getting that broasted flavor. Needs a rotisserie and way more salt than the average person has in their kitchen.

Interesting tidbit elsewhere in the thread:
What do you say to the allegations that your last AMA had pictures of young people who did not work for you that you were portraying as your young dedicated staff? You were called out on it several times even by those in the photograph and never responded.
OP has yet to respond. 🤔

I was really torn on submitting the whole thread. I came to the conclusion, with it's exposure(Upvotes/Submitted date), that it would have appeared here already if people were interested in it. So I went through and found this
cherryred hot chili pepper.

That guy seems salty. And spicy. And bitter. Not sweet, though, so not a perfect balance of flavor and that's the rub.

What kind of person needs to buy pre-grown, soon to be rotten "garlic"?
Half the fun, no, ninety percent of the fun of making a rub is growing your own herbs and ingredients. Im pretty sure everyone owns seeds, dirt, water, etc.
Are you targeting Wal-Mart customers on purpose because of their naivety? Just wondering because you seem pretty hell bent on your little business plan here.

What kind of person needs to use a pre-prepared, soon to be eroded dirt?
Half the fun, no, ninety percent of the fun of growing vegetables is depositing your own earth and minerals. Im pretty sure everyone owns rocks, elementary forces, the sea, etc.

Oh sure you make your own seasonings but did you hand craft all of your tools or just buy some prebuilt shit?

I, for one, love prepackaged spices and sauces and all that because I hate hate hate cooking. One of my life goals is to have enough disposable income to hire my own cook so I'll never have to cook again.

I buy pre made seasonings things like Mrs. Dash and then add more of the stuff I like garlic and cayenne.

I want to make a joke, but I feel I'd get reported for racism.

I'm sure I could recreate Penzey's Sunny Paris or the Teeny Tiny Spice Company's Sichuan seasoning but I'm just not going to, because that requires a lot more time and effort than I really want to put into making a seasoning mix, damn it. I work for a living so I can afford some conveniences in my life.
Also, it helps small businesses when I buy from them! Fella needs to mow his damn lawn and sit the hell down.

Yeah, sure you can make your own spice rubs. But if you're like me, it takes 5-10 minutes to make sure you're adding the correct amounts. Any less and you risk not eating. Premeasured rubs are fantastic.

There's this Kirkland mesquite rub (the Costco house brand) that is just phenomenal. I'll gladly pay for tasty, inexpensive, and convenient.

Well, OP, did you cultivate, grow, and harvest this popcorn yourself, or did you just find some pre-made popcorn on the shelf and use that?
