    A smidge of paprika does wonders. I usually carry just salt and pepper packets though.

    I could add that the Turmeric in curry has been shown to relieve joint inflammation.

    I use the condiment packets when I can, my standards are mustard and mayo, sometime relish and chopped onions, a occasional hot sauce. And grape jam packet is the only way to eat the freeze dried eggs for me.

    I have not done much with spices.

    I always carry one of these: http://domsoutdoor.com/gsi-lexan-pep...ll/p/1-067732/ Don't laugh (at least not too much). The silly thing works. In fact, I use it in the kitchen here at home, for specialty peppercorns. It's got green ones in it right now.

    I carry a one-handed pepper grinder too. Excellent Christmas present from my wife one year.

    how's the grind on that thing, I like my pepper to be coarser rather than a fine grain.
