Hello all,

Another newbie question. I am reorganizing my spice, seasonings and sauces. I have some jerk seasoning tht I got in Jamaica. It SEEMS legal. Please advise.

Here is nutrition listing:

1tsp serving

0 calories
0 fat
290mg sodium yikes
0 total carb

I dont know how that is possible to have zero fat and zero calories when
the ingredients are escallion, salt, hot peppers, brown sugar, black pepper, thyme, garlic, vinegar, vegetable oil (corn or soy)

Experts what do you think? Should I lose sleep?
I like it that I can pronounce and recognize all the ingredients.


Also what are some safe marinades. I have two - Mrs Dash Lemon Peppercorn to which I add lemon grass and Louisiana Red pepper in Lemon juice.

red pepper = total carb is 2 0 fat 10cal per 1 tbsp

dash = total carb 2; 25cal, 2g fat per 1tbsp

should I dump them? What else on the label should I be looking at?

THANKS!!!

it's pretty high in sodium. I dunno if I'd use enough to make it worth it because of the sodium. However, if you want to make some yourself I posted a marinade recipe a while back in this forum.

Oh but the other spices are fine. I forget the allowed amounts though. :/ Someone will probably know.

Hi Sarya,

Thanks! I agree about the sodium. I will dump it.

I search forum for your jerk marinade and will give it try! Thanks again.
