Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about our spices, seasonings, and flavor solutions.
How do I check the freshness of my McCormick spices?
Each McCormick product features a 'Best By' date on the bottle. For optimum flavor, we recommend replacing ground spices every 2-3 years and whole spices every 3-4 years.
What is your shipping policy for online orders?
We offer standard and expedited shipping across the United States. Orders are typically processed within 1-2 business days, and tracking information is emailed as soon as your package departs our warehouse.
Are McCormick products gluten-free?
We clearly list any ingredients containing gluten on our labels. If a product does not have a gluten-containing ingredient listed (such as wheat, barley, or rye), it is considered gluten-free by our manufacturing standards.
What should I do if I am not satisfied with my purchase?
We stand behind the quality of our products. If you are unsatisfied, you may return the item within 30 days of purchase for a full refund or exchange, provided you have the original receipt or order number.
Do you offer bulk discounts for culinary professionals?
Yes, we offer a dedicated McCormick for Chefs program which provides bulk sizing and professional pricing for restaurants, catering services, and large-scale food operations.
How should I store my herbs and spices for maximum shelf life?
To maintain potency, store your spices in a cool, dry, and dark place away from direct sunlight and heat sources like the stove or oven.
