Hello LilyOnTheLam.Com Readers:
As it is a shortened holiday week in the United States, I am all screwed up on my days and as such I am doing my "New Product Review Wednesday" (products that are new or new to me) on a Thursday! It's just CRAZY land, here at LilyOnTheLam!
Growing up glued to the television set, I am particularly susceptible to advertising of any kind. On my Instagram account, one of the people I follow I swear is some sort of paid or unpaid brand ambassador for Tajin Clasico Seasoning. Every day she would post a picture of whatever fruit she was eating that day, sprinkled lovingly with Tajin. And each day, I would drool a little more.
I had no idea what Tajin Clasico Seasoning was, but I HAD TO HAVE IT.
A quick search on the internet explained that Tajin is a mix of dried chili peppers, sea salt and dehydrated lime juice. It's supposed to add a spicy, citrus salt kick to fruit and other food stuffs.
Now I am not actively seeking new ways to introduce salt into my diet ...
Hypocrisy check side note: OK OK I will admit that at my last dinner party, I served vodka marinated grape tomatoes with four dipping salts - truffle, alderwood smoked, chipotle and black Hawaiian lava salt. And these 24 hour vodka soaked drunken tomatoes with festive salt pairings were the HIT of the party. Especially since I served them with
Fred and Friends LIP SERVICE Mustache Toothpicks (which can be found at my Amazon Affiliate link).
But in general, I am not trying to add more salt into my diet. But the Instagram Tajin Lover's daily pictures were more than I could stand! I went on to Amazon.com and found a ten pack of mini "purse-size" bottles of Tajin Clasico Seasoning.
This Amazon affiliate link is actually for a 2 pack of 10 minis to go, so I assume that is 20 little bottles! Tajin Seasoning with Lime 10 Minis to Go, 10/.35 Oz. Bottles (2 pack)
Did I need TEN mini bottles? No, but they didn't sell them in packs of one.
So yes, I had become THAT woman who carries condiments in her purse. As if being an elderly, spinster cat lady wasn't appealing enough! And if the product didn't taste good, well I knew what I would be handing out to the neighborhood kids at Halloween. (Ohhh my reputation gets worse and worse!)
My tiny little bottles of pepper-lime-salt seasoning arrived from Amazon and after taking a few minutes to pretend I was a giant, I tried the Tajin on fresh cut watermelon.
Oooof I am in trouble because this stuff is TASTY on fruit! Citrusy, spicy with a punch of salt - on fresh, cold, perfectly ripe and sweet watermelon ... it is my new snack obsession. I try not to overdo it with the Tajin - as I said, I am not trying to invent new ways to add salt into my diet - but wow, is it good!
If you're looking for some zip to your fresh fruit or other food items, check out Tajin Clasico Seasoning. It's delicious!
P.S. I have added Amazon Affiliate links to some of my blog posts. If you like LilyOnTheLam and want to try some of the products I mention, please try them through my Amazon Affiliate links program to help me continue running LilyOnTheLam. Thank you!

In case Tajin needs a "Spokescat," Mr. Rufus T. "Chibby" Chibs is on standby |
