So what happened to all the missing paprika on the store shelves?

How's this for weird? If you like to cook, somehow you can't go to the store to get a spice container of paprika anymore.

That's because there isn't any, the shelves are bare.

Lot of people are noticing these days. Tim Carney of the Washington Examiner pointed it out here and others chimed in:

Loved the link, but I don’t get the “evil Americans” thing.

freeze it

paprika wouldn’t work on squirrels, you have to use something made from really hot peppers, like chilies or ghost pepper powder.

Paprika is good to feed chickens to make the egg yolks deeper in color.

Hungarians are big paprika users. Don’t know if they still grow a lot.

[Chainmail]

Soros got all of it.

Ollie’s!

Plenty of paprika, onion powder, cilantro, nutmeg, chipotle . . .

I use a super soaker squirt shotgun with chili pepper tea to dissuade squirrels on the pool cage screen. Also works on the damn bunnies in the flower garden.

14 yrs post grad education. Sad what I have become.

Some one told these brilliant snowflake protesters, rioters and looters that you can make a bomb with it, funny

Szeged and Kalocsa are still major growing regions.

Thanks, I didn’t know that.
I’ll look on my map.

Looks like chicken Paprikas is going on the menu this week.

I always thought the sole use for Paprika was to top off deviled eggs. But years ago, realizing there was no paprika in the spice rack, I substituted Old Bay and I have never looked back.

Can’t find any ground oregano. All I can find is roughly chopped.

[Adder]

Can you freeze it to keep it fresh?

[msrngtp2002]

Just like pistol and rifle primers I stockpiled paprika...guess I have to start selling things at an even bigger markup. Fortunes change overnight 😄

Most OC is cayenne derived.

P.S.- a lot of the raw stock for the production of OC comes from the waste products derived from the manufacture of hot sauce.

Visit your local ethnic grocery - Thai, Indian, Arabic, etc.

Likely to have non-Chinese product. And, you’ll learn how greatly overpriced spices are in American groceries.

I say this respectfully and with understanding that different people are in different situations, but it is somewhat disturbing to me that people patronize Amazon, or need to.
