They are available in protective amber glass jars at edenfoods.com, our shop in Clinton, Michigan, and are pareve. Reckless irradiation of ‘commercial’ herbs and spices has been going on for decades. Most herbs and spices are irradiated. Food irradiation is now called “pasteurization” to hide it. This changes foods’ nature and taste. It randomly modifies DNA and RNA in the spices, herbs, and other food subjected to it.
