Summary
This seasoning blend contains a mix of spices and salt, with the addition of silicon dioxide as an anti-caking agent. While the ingredient list is relatively short and free from artificial colors or flavors, the presence of an additive and the processed nature of the product limit its score. The use of whole spices is a positive aspect, but the processing level prevents it from achieving a higher rating.
