Cajun Seasoning
Alright---I have a question for you more Cajun versed than me.
The Slap Ya Momma seasoning has salt, black pepper, cayenne pepper and garlic. I would not say that is Cajun 
My idea of Cajun spice is a mixture of, salt, black pepper, white pepper, cayenne pepper, smoked paprika, thyme, oregano, garlic powder, onion powder and oregano.
Now, I do understand that this is no different than many other regional or ethnic concoctions and at the end of the day is up to the cook---but I fail to understand the apparent simplicity of the Slap Ya Momma mix. I have to give them credit---they seem to have hit on a great marketing scheme to up the price of normal pantry items 
Help me to a better understanding of Cajun
