I like to keep a jar of plain red pepper powder in the kitchen.  Sometimes 
it's a mix of several kinds, sometimes only one.  A few weeks ago I finished 
out the last of the old mixed batch, and bought a bag of red powder from a 
local Indian grocery, a Patel chain location.

The brand is Swad, which I have seen in other Asian/Middle Eastern/Indian 
groceries.  The label simply says EXTRA HOT CHILLY POWDER so I don't know 
exactly what kind of pods are in it.  But I like it!

Dang, somewhere there's a dusty red packing line filling those bags...
