 ML> Sri Lankan Chicken Curry ... If you are using store bought
 ML> curry powder, please make sure that the mixture has a
 ML> combination of at least some of the spices of the Sri Lankan
 ML> curry powder. AVOID curry powders that have turmeric, garlic
 ML> powder, onion powder as main ingredients because THESE ARE
 NOT curry powders.

That made me curious so I checked my MM and came up with this:
