calling it a spice feels generous, it's yellow food colouring powder.

sure technically it affects flavour but so does eating out of a different bowl..

I once severely misjudged the amount needed I'm some rice I made. I can assure you, it does have flavour.

i mean you said it yourself, you need to use waaaaay more to taste anything.

in the quantities normally used it's just yellow powder.

Turmeric root has some decent flavor, but the dried spice is pretty bland beyond its smell. Same with ginger or galangal.
