COSTCO (Kirkland) "Ground Saigon Cinnamon"
I called COSTCO as there is no ingredient information on the label. It is 100% cinnamon, I was told. I suggested they say so on the label in the future! But, for a company like COSTCO, unlike Harris-Teeter, this is a no-brainer. When they say it is cinnamon, it is.

The hidden salt in chicken - Los Angeles Times
I sure think that places selling fresh and frozen chicken could do a lot better job in comparing and contrasting all nutritional information. It's a bad reflection on them that no one seems to do this.

I bought beefsteak tomatoes at COSTCO from this supplier. They were simply marked as coming from Canada. Big country. Where? Also mentioned on the packaging was thegreengrassproject.com Not sure what that is.
