I've run low on paprika, so I wanted to buy at least one pound to tide myself over for a while.
Amazon seems to only carry "Hungarian style" . I didn't notice the style at first, but that annoyed me once I noticed it, and clearly the reviews reflect it, as you can see folks indicating it is not very good.

And, I just couldn't get comfortable with Happy Belly Amazon brand for $7.

Costco didn't carry it, Walmart didn't carry it, so I'm off to online.
The Spice House is ~$30/pound https://www.thespicehouse.com/produc...-sweet-paprika
Spice Inc not in stock https://www.spicesinc.com/p-27-hunga...t-paprika.aspx
Spiceology wants $64 a pound. https://spiceology.com/products/papr...ian-glass-jar/
I finally run across Spice Jungle, which is $18.75 a pound and smoked, with free shipping and they gave me a 5% coupon. It is clearly marked as sourced from Hungary, and its website actually provides useful information. Apparently, the cheaper paprika comes from Peru!

Then, as I do, I wondered around the website and found some cool salts, which I promptly ordered.
This cool coffee-flavored salt:
and this hickory smoked one.
Anyway, shipping looks to be a bit delayed, but will share some pics when it arrives. I am also getting low on pepper, so will probably order some good peppercorns ( https://www.spicejungle.com/salt-pepper/peppercorns) in the near future.
Has anyone used a peppercorn blend ( https://www.spicejungle.com/five-peppercorn-melange ), or smoked peppercorns (https://www.spicejungle.com/smoked-black-peppercorns) in a rub?
I thought I'd flag Spice Jungle as a solid place for spices, given its informative website, and very competitive pricing.
