<h1>Spice Racks</h1>
<h3>Keep your cumin and your curry straight</h3>
<p class="author">By Michele Foley</p>

<div class="intro">

    <p>If we’re to believe the mantra of the sci-fi classic <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0087182/" target="_blank"><em>Dune</em></a>, he who controls the spice controls the universe. Do we exaggerate? Perhaps just a little. But after all, having control of your spices leads to better cooking, easier cleanup, and a happier you.</p>

<p>Just like Le Creuset’s French ovens, the company’s spice jars are made to last through generations of use, but they carry a much smaller price tag.</p>
