I’m this way too. I could break down the whole spice rack I have, but I quit with the onion/garlic powders. I don’t have garlic powder in the house, but the onion powder is a rock. For onion, I use fresh. For garlic I use fresh or I do have dried minced garlic I get in small batches from the co op. Just something about starting a meal with sauteed onions idk . I feel you here
