So far it seems to be.. :)

How odd... Perhaps there's some pushback we don't know about...?  Or
they are in the process of re-branding themselves...?  I've noticed the
"Lousiana Kitchen" signage on our local Popeyes...

I've had that happen... but at least the mild is good too...  :)

We've had the frozen Zatarain's entrees and found them fine... haven't
done the mixes, though...

I've not seen anything show up anywhere yet... Could be that she's only
answered everything that had appeared to date, and is staying "caught
up" by not releasing any into the ether for us to answer...?  (G) 
Haven't had a response to my email reply to her yet, either...

For me that tends to be a recipe for getting farther behind... I do keep
it to the 20/day maximum... otherwise, when possible, I try to not be
more than a day behind... even that can be futile, when too many other
things are going on..  :)
