Gaza has been increasing its exports of spices, and they are now marketed not only to Europe but to the  US as well.

Within Gaza are 200 dunums of peppers, and about 50 dunums of cherry tomato and other tomatoes, and dozens of dunums planted with spices such as basil leaves and mint.

25 tons of spices have been exported to Europe this year so far, and 10 tons of spices went to the US just in the past three months.

Spices are a much more lucrative market, as they can be grown and ready for export in just a month. Gaza has been exporting spices all summer, while its vegetable and flower crops can only be exported in the winter months.

All the crops are being exported by Israeli companies.

I have not been able to figure out what brands these spices are sold under; usually all Palestinian Arab crops were sold under the Coral brand from Agrexco but I'm not sure about the spices. I see that the Israel Flower Growers Association set up a computer system so Gaza farmers can track their shipments abroad.

Of course, Gaza farmers pay taxes to Hamas, so buying Gaza spices indirectly funds Hamas.

Apparently, the Western world is only interested in labeling goods that are from the territories if those goods were created by Jews. I mean, why would any moral person want to boycott goods from Hamastan?
