Eat it all the time... I love Cajun red beans & rice, and fix Cuban pork roast with black beans, onions & yellow rice, and of course chili with pinto beans, and 13 bean soup or navy beans with country ham and thyme, or ham hocks, bay leaves & kale.
They have things like mango nectar and coconut.
Seasonings are a good deal, saving a few bucks a bottle over other brands, and the selection is good from star anise for Asian cooking to garlic and such for BBQ. The Goya guava paste makes a tasty Florida barbeque sauce.

What are the chances I can talk you out of your Cuban paaork roast recipe?

Also, if you cook a lot, don’t buy bottled seasonings. Grow/dehydrating your own is best, but if not, buy them in bulk. 10x cheaper than the bottles. I go to Central Market (DFW area, owned by HEB), and their bulk spice selection is huge. Stuff is $10 a pound, that costs $5 for a 2-3oz bottle. Plus, you can grab the self-fill coffee bags and stock up in bulk!

If you’re not in the Texas area, check around near you, there’s gotta be a store that has bulk spices. Check your fancy food stores, if you’re only getting bulk spices there, it’s much cheaper and higher quality!
