If you, like many of us, are somewhat addicted to fruity, spicy Aleppo pepper, you've probably also noticed that you can't find it anymore. Why? Quick geography quiz: Where's Aleppo? Right, Aleppo is in Syria, which is currently in the middle of a massive, catastrophic civil war.

This means many things, most all of of them far more important than where we get our spices. Nevertheless, the question arises of what spices to substitute for Aleppo pepper until that war ends. The folks at Spice Station are here to help.

The Spice Station, on Sunset Boulevard in Silver Lake, is a kind of magical place, a peaceful spot that's about as far away from war-torn Aleppo as it's possible to be in Los Angeles. It's a tiny spice store, filled with jars and tins, wooden shelves loaded with spices and teas, bronze spice grinders and scales and mortars and pestles and interesting photographs. Imagine if Peter Jackson owned an apothecary shop.

There are jars and jars, filled with vadouvan, ras al hanout, curry, piri piri, garam masala, spice mixtures and rubs such as Uyghur BBQ rub, and all kinds of teas. They also sell chile peppers, the jars lining one wall like a spice library.

Like there's anything good from the Middle East but food anyway.

Their religion has been absolute cancer to the entire world, from Judaism to Christianity to Islam.

It seems every single iteration of monotheism is worse than the last.
