[edit] Oregano

I've never seen a Herbes de Provence without Oregano. Could this be because I'm not French? njaard 00:55, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

I'm French and I know there almost always is oregano in the mix, and I wonder what other kind of nonsense there may be in that "American edition" of the Larousse Gastronomique. Also, noone with a hint of sense would add lavender.

[edit] Where to buy

Obviously I don't know much about this blend of herbs. Including where to look to buy it. Is it found in the local supermarket? Do you blend it yourself? This information would be helpful. Evan Chaney (talk) 04:14, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
