my mother in law has only gone and bought DRIED MIXED HERBS

[Kablooger]

for my cupboard while I was away.
AKA the devils toenail clippings.

Is there any reason not to bin them?

[Youarejustwordsonascreenpeople]

They go well in spaghetti bolognaise.

[Pancakeflipper]

Good when camping unless you camp next to herb gardens.
Good when self catering. Unless you have staff to do your shopping/cooking.
Good when doing that foil and fish oven baking thing.
Otherwise what a bitch MIL is.

[Panzee]

Call 101 for advice.

[ShatnersBassoon]

Dried herbs are perfectly edible. What's in the mix? Sort of Mediterranean flavours?

[Fairylea]

What's wrong with them?

[wheretoyougonow]

Herb snob.

[SirChenjin]

Bin them, and go and buy your own bloody herbs.

[pebblestack]

"What no herbes de provence?"

Nothing wrong with herbes de Provence. Very useful. My kids like it on pizza.

[ShatnersBassoon]

Don't you lot know that dried herbs are for poor uncultured people with no taste?

[zoemaguire]

I'm a GREAT cook, a massive food snob, and I used dried mixed herbs! Don't sprinkle them on your porridge, but in a stew, why not?

I like mixed herb peasant. My MIL bought 2 flashing bunny ears, sugar cubes, angrl delight, clothes for dcs, bath sponges, toothbrushes for dcs, a doll, loom bands.... The list goes on.... Bar the clothes, why just why? We have enough crap things.

[HotPinkWeaselWearingLederhosen]

Devils toenail? Are you not very good at cooking? They add flavour not texture.

[pictish]

I take dried mixed herbs camping. Lovely.
