McCormick Ground Pepper Black, 3 oz

I have used other ground pepper in the past, and McCormick always comes out superior. It has a bold, fresh flavor with just the right amount of kick, making it perfect for everyday cooking. The grind is consistent, and the container keeps it fresh for a long time. A simple, reliable seasoning that elevates any dish. I also appreciate that it has a long "best by" date (2029), as it is a very large container and will take a while to get through.

I received this as a freebie through McCormick, in exchange for my honest opinion. I cook with pepper very frequently. I mainly buy peppercorns because in my opinion it's more fresh. I compared McCormick ground pepper to fresh ground peppercorns. Both smelled just as strong, which surprised me. I thought the peppercorn would be more strong. The greatest advantage this product had over peppercorns was the ease of use. With peppercorns you have to grind it, and it gets all over the place when you need to measure it with a measuring spoon. McCormicks packaging has 3 different ways to pour out the pepper. It's less mess and quicker. Definitely a great product to have on hamd when you are im a rush.
