Perfectly Balanced Taco Seasoning
I usually buy store-brand taco seasoning, but it's always hit or miss — either too bland or too spicy. McCormick nailed it. It seasoned 1 lb of ground beef perfectly, every bite had great flavor with no heat overload. Definitely worth buying over generic brands — you can taste the difference!
Great Seasoning
I always keep a box of the McCormick Original Taco Seasoning Mix in my pantry, and the 6-pack is super convenient! The flavor is exactly what I want in a taco night savory, a little zesty, and perfectly balanced without being too spicy. It mixes smoothly with ground beef or turkey and makes dinner so easy. I also like using it to season shredded chicken or even sprinkle a little into beans and rice for extra flavor. What I love most is that the seasoning is consistent every single time, and I don't have to measure out a bunch of spices it's all done for me. The 1 oz packets are the perfect size for a family meal, and buying them in a multi-pack saves money and trips to the store. If you're looking for a no-fail taco seasoning that everyone will enjoy, this is definitely it. Taco night has never been easier!
Excellent taco seasoning!
McCormicks sent me this seasoning for free. I browned the beef and then put in the seasoning packet. The packet mixed well with the beef and then I added onion, pepper and jalapeños. My wife and I really enjoyed the bold flavor and will be purchasing again.
