1015 ET - McCormick says consumers are cooking at home more often and increasingly shopping the perimeter of grocery stores. CEO Brendan Foley says that spices and seasonings are McCormick's best performing center-aisle category. The spice maker has seen significant growth among sales of its larger product sizes, Foley says, an indicator that consumers are still focused on value per ounce. "They're trying to make their dollar stretch as much as they can, which is another reason why they go to the perimeter of the store to make scratch meals," Foley says. "They see them as healthier, but they also see them as cheaper." (roshan.fernandez@wsj.com)
