Coghlans Multi-Spice

Ideal for holidays, picnics

I love cooking outdoors, but like every camper I want to limit my gear and pack carefully. I cook outdoors and take v little seasoning for practical purposes. Thus multispice pack, I came across accidentally and just had to have it. It is quite small an can roll up in my gear so its not in the way. There are six "Spices", all the same size except the salt which is double the other. Plus garlic salt, black pepper, cayenne, curry, and paprika. This just lifted the meals we cooked as wild campers from dull to "Spice" and bite! Has lasted quite a while. Waterproof, individual covers clip firmly with no spillages. Everyone asks where I got it from! Worth every penny. A must if you cook at Festivals. Initially thought it would be nice if you could refill it as it was used, but in fact the sealing of the lid makes sense so happy to buy another when this is finished. Highly recommend. ps - Sainsbury sell a four lid herb unit very similar.

I've not had an issue with the spices not coming out as others have noted, and the caps seem robust, however if it is kept in damp conditions, it can clog up a little. I keep it in the house when not in use and it seems to be okay.However, not being able to refill it is a bit of a show-stopper. That's a really short-sighted design failure.

The principle of this product is perfect- seasoning food whilst camping and having a workable way of carrying them is a huge problem.THIS product is unfortunately not the solution- FIRSTLY, it should be made clear that this is a ONE USE ONLY product. Its doesn't unscrew in order for you to refill it. So if you don't use equal amounts of each spice each trip, you'll end up carrying around a half full dispenser with spices you don't necessarily use.The other problem is the clip lids... You basically bend the plastic on the lid to access the spices and sprinkle on your food... They are prone to snapping thus rendering the product useless.IF this product was £5.00 inc postage and it was clearly marked ONE USE ONLY it would be worth the punt- Unfortunately it isn't!!

The hole stoppers come of the small lids leaving it useless. A waste of money!

Nice neat small and easy to use. Great for camping.
