Kroger Private Selection Grinders Giveaway

I am very excited to offer my first giveaway! 

I am a huge Kroger loyalist and can't imagine the idea of shopping any other grocery store.  The variety of products in their own store brand astounds me, and quite honestly, is normally better than a national brand in terms of taste, price, and quality. 

When I grill or need to add some subtle flavor to my meat, I grab Kroger Private Selection Grinders.  My favorite is Sea Salt.  Something about it just makes everything taste so perfect.  I also add it to my unsalted popcorn for just the slightest hint of flavoring. Mmmm!

To celebrate the end of summer and beginning of fall cookouts, I am giving away a set of Kroger Private Selection Grinders, valued at $20.  There are six in the set - Peppercorn Medley, Whole Black Peppercorns, Steakhouse Seasoning, Garlic and Pepper, Spicy Italian Herb Seasoning and Sea Salt.  The perfect combination for all grilled foods, right?!

You can enter this contest two ways:
1 - Leave a comment below on the medleys.  How would you use them?  When would you use them?  What kinds of food would you put them in?
2 - Tweet the following "Win a Private Selection Grinders Set from @BuddyBits. Contest ends 8/31/10! Enter at http://tinyurl.com/bbitsgrinder". Then leave a comment stating you tweeted the giveaway.

The contest ends 8/31/10 at 7pm EST.  Winner will be notified via email and will have 48 hours to respond.  Winner will be chosen at random.
