    Bought this stuff a while back because his Shawarma paste is fairly nice and the Citrus & Spice mix he does is great, but this stuff is just too sickly sweet, so has sat unused in our spice cupboard.

    We've been making popcorn a fair bit this last week or so and after making up a couple of bowls last night - one salty, the other butter and sugar, I saw this in the cupboard and thought I'd give it a go and fuck me, Popcorn is what it was designed for. So. Damned. Good.

    It's just too sweet on actual non-snack food though.

      tbf, it says it right there on the ingredients that it's sweet - it's over a quarter sugar, lol.      Nairn

      This would make a phenomenal dry rub for pulled pork.      Continuity
