SEND IT BACK. 100% SATISFACTION GUARANTEED | "Seasoning is in Cookery what chords are in music." (Louis Eustache Ude) | AND WATKINS CAN REALLY PLAY THAT KIND OF MUSIC. Our award-winning and extra flavorful vanilla is used in recipes that require cooking or freezing.Watkins Original Double-Strength Vanilla has only 8.5 % alcohol, unlike Pure Vanilla Extract, which is 35% alcohol. The alcohol in Pure Vanilla Extract cooks off leaving less flavor in your cakes and cookies. But not Watkins Original Double-Strength! It retains its flavor so everything you make tastes better. You can use less and save money. | OUR BLACK PEPPER IS BETTER
I recently passed a sample of Watkins pepper around a room of 200 people, and asked them to sniff it. I told them anyone who sneezed was welcome to a free box of pepper. Despite many hopeful tries, nobody sneezed. Why? The reason is that Watkins cleans out all the leaves and debris from the peppercorns before they are processed. They start with top-quality Malabar and Lampong peppercorns, and then they granulate them instead of crushing them. That preserves their high essential oil content, and makes our pepper more flavorful. I love anything with garlic, so my favorite Watkins pepper is Watkins Garlic Peppercorn Blend, whole black and white peppercorns with savory chunks of dehydrated garlic. The Garlic Peppercorn Blend is phenomenal on steaks -- Prime Rib, New York and Buffalo Rib Eye. Try the Royal Peppercorn Blend too, the classic "four-pepper" blend--black for depth, white for heat, green for subtlety, and pink for mild sharpness. | WE HAVE NATURAL PLANT-BASED CLEANERS THAT ARE GOOD FOR YOU AND THE ENVIRONMENT
My friend, Phoebe, has had to move a lot lately and just finished the clean-up for her most recent exit. Faced with the task of cleaning her kitchen, all she had on hand was Watkins Aloe and Green Tea Window Cleaner, which proved perfect for the job because the cupboards had a lot of laminate. She cleaned the whole kitchen with Watkins Window Cleaner, noting that "while spraying the cleaner, I didn't get that horrible headache feeling (I normally get). This made the task a lot more pleasant. It was the first time I didn't feel crummy after cleaning a kitchen." | WATKINS HAS BEEN RELIEVING ACHES AND PAINS SINCE 1868
J.R. Watkins started our company in 1868 using a horse and buggy to deliver a liniment he made in his kitchen in Plainview, Minnesota. The liniment was so successful that we still have a Red Liniment and White Cream Liniment based on his recipe. I have Fibromyalgia, and have used both liniments, our Pain Relief Spray, and our pain relief food supplement,Watkins Linimax. I could probably live with the low grade pain, but doing without it sure makes my busy life a lot more bearable. My cousin went up to Alaska where the mosquitos are well, very big. She was thrilled to discover she got relief using the Pain Relief Burn Cream on her bites.
| A Little About Me
Hello. I'm the Southwest Kid. My name is Susan Fox. I got into this business when my second career as a home-schooling mother came to an abrupt end in 2006. My only child went to college!
