Using up spices

[libitina]

My friends are getting together a communal order for spices to save on shipping, and for some the Thanksgiving season is the time to go through their cabinets and weed out the old spices.

I mostly want to make grabby hands at them and take on any old ill advised purchase because I don't believe in waste, but I shall restrain myself and instead offer a few suggestions to all you all on how to use up weird spices.

( Meat )

( Root vegetables )

( Bread )

( Vegetables )

( Spreads )

( Nuts )

Or, you can give any you can't use up to me.
