Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about our quality spices and seasonings.
How do I check the freshness of my McCormick products?
You can find a 'Best By' date on each bottle. For older containers without a date, look for a series of numbers and letters; our customer service team can help you decode these to determine the production date.
What is the best way to store spices and herbs?
To maintain maximum flavor and potency, store your spices in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, heat, and moisture. Avoid storing them directly above the stove.
Do McCormick products contain gluten?
We clearly label any product that contains gluten. If a product does not list wheat, barley, rye, or oats in the ingredients list, it does not contain gluten. We follow strict cleaning and sanitation processes to prevent cross-contact.
How long does shipping take for online orders?
Standard shipping typically takes 3-7 business days within the continental United States. You will receive a tracking number via email as soon as your order leaves our warehouse.
What is your return policy for food items?
Due to the nature of our products, we cannot accept returns on food items. However, if your order arrives damaged or incorrect, please contact our support team within 30 days for a full refund or replacement.
Does McCormick offer bulk discounts for professional chefs?
Yes, we offer a dedicated 'McCormick for Chefs' line designed for high-volume use. Please visit our professional services page for information on bulk ordering and wholesale pricing.
