Pick up a shaker of "Soul Food" seasoning. Garlic, cayenne, onion, paprika, and other spices. Good stuff.

What are you using it on?
Anything that needs a zing of spice. Savory stuff. My wife made a shepherd's pie that was a little bland, I used it on that and it popped. Used it on my SIL's chili too. I could imagine it being good on steaks, greens, fish, etc. I'll bet it would be good in Bloody Mary's too.

Would be a good base seasoning for some smoked chicken wings.

I buy this as well, it is quite salty so be conservative with it until you figure it out. The one labeled Chicken Seasoning is pretty good on grilled wings too, again, it’s pretty salty.

It's weird how Dollar General, Walmarts, and Targets sell more or less the same stuff but all have a very distinct smell inside the store.

K-Mart (RIP to a real one) had a VERY distinct aroma.
I feel the same way about Tom Thumb grocery stores. They all have a distinct 'funk' when you walk in.

I think all the cardboard in the average Dollar General really has an impact on the way they smell.

Grew up around the country and the flip side is Woolworth, Kresge. TG&Y, any of the 5 and dimes smelled exactly the same. Actually K-Mart was in that range as I think about it.
