Very few people outside Louisiana or Gulf Coast Mississippi or Texas know Tony's exists.

People in Kentucky etc don't use it at all.

Actually a world brand. It's popular in Iraq (due to soldiers from Louisiana sharing their care packages with civilians).


Probably guys from Monroe and they really lean into the Louisiana culture thing despite being from the less cultural part of the state.

I know that they have it up in Wisconsin at Wal-Mart and certain grocery stores but most households wont go any further beyond Lawry's for their seasoning and all fish comes with tartar sauce.

Nothing more cultural than some salt and cayenne pepper mixed together

You can find it at Ingles and Publix but isn't that common staple in many households

Especially since every culinary influencer seems to immediately start peddling their own seasoning mix
And it seems that many of them travel to *gasp* Birmingham, Alabama, where there many custom spice blenders.

Here's just one: LINK

It’s only on the table of salt addicted shitty cooks


Uh, Tony's is only 15% sodium. Morton's iodized salt is 26%. I use Tony's most of the time to salt my food.

I always chuckled that the only place I could find a cajun seasoning mix in San Diego in the early 2000s was at the International Food Store.

Quit using Tonys because of the salt. Only use Roy's from Iowa. For non meat, Louisiana hot sauce or Crystal it available.

Usually it's redfish seasoning not Tonys.
Like a Monica or Roban Sauce which is alfredo + redfish seasoning.

You might be the stupidest person on the OT.

And you said it with an air of authority with the “Uh” which makes it even more pathetic.
