Another spice to consider — Casa M Spice’s Cattle Drive packs a kick

I’m not sure why, but I seem to be hearing from a lot of new spice companies lately. I recently reviewed some offerings from Burn Pit and now I’m going to tell you a bit about Cattle Drive from Casa M Spice Co.

I asked to sample Casa M’s Cattle Drive because it’s marketed as low sodium. And it is, 30 mgs a serving. The company says of it, “Use to replace pepper on your table and add to anything you’d add black pepper to.”

The original formula, which I tried, is rated at two peppers, but it tasted more peppery, read hot peppers, to me than that.

My daughter, who eats more spicy foods than me, said it also tastes more complex than simple pepper. It reminded her of Old Bays, she tells me. A vegetarian, she planned to use it on french fries much as she did with Old Bays in days gone by.

If you like hot, peppery spices, I’d recommend it for you as a low-salt alternative to other higher-salt blends.

Th company offers a range of other products on its website and there seem to be discount codes you can get there as well.
