Zombie Powder is our signature blend — an all-purpose seasoning designed to replace the “salt-and-something” routine with south Asian spices blended with that bbq flavor, balance, and intention. It starts subtly sweet, finishes warm and savory, and builds heat the more you use it.

This is the spice you reach for every day — whether you’re cooking breakfast, amp'ing up vegetable-powered dishes, seasoning proteins, or leveling up popcorn and snacks. Familiar enough to feel effortless. Distinct enough to make people ask, “What is on this?” 

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

“Zombie Powder is amazing!

The other night we made hamburgers with Zombie Powder which were incredible. We cut some fingerling potatoes as a side and they looked boring, so we covered them in Zombie Powder as well. They came out great! I think you can pretty much cover anything with Zombie Powder and it will be delicious!” — Paul O. | 09/08/25
