• One look at their site says it all

  At 38, I find myself looking for a new pair so I can reconnect with my own youth. Next, I'll be searching for them for my own sons in hope of passing on the same strong connection. This is perhaps the last of the underground brands that never sold out, and has stayed successful (still in business) nonetheless. One look at their site says it all.

  Old Bay Seasoning

  06 December 2006

  Old Bay is iconic in the Mid-Atlantic area of the United States, especially in Baltimore. My mother swore she ate so many steamed crabs when she was pregnant with me that my blood type would be "Old Bay positive." I put it on a lot of foods other than just crabs and shrimp...fries, corn, baked potatoes, fish, burgers, chicken. The can design has been the same my whole life and I hope it never changes. I have so many memories of everyone gathered around a table, picking crabs, drinking beer, talking and laughing. A big can of Old Bay was always there on the table. Without it, it just wouldn’t be the same.
