Where's Your Coriander From?

Recently I grabbed a bottle of ground coriander from the supermarket shelf, forgetting to check the label. After using it a few times, I then realized that the coriander was from Iran. I have no clue on the food standards in Iran and felt quite uncomfortable using the coriander again. I also could not find an ingredient list on the food label to confirm that it is 100% coriander, and not mixed with some other stuff which is quite common in processed food.

This was actually my first time buying coriander as I am still getting used to using spices in cooking. Looks like I need to source around more.
