You have been so tainted by Capitalism, that you don't realize that there are thousands of herbs, and spices -- how do you cope without knowing the taste of Sorrell (Rumex acetosa, not Hibiscus sabdariffa -- which almost everyone has tasted), or the deliciousness of Stinging Nettle Soup? Or the juiceness of muzwilu (Vangueria infausta)?
(All of which most people haven't had because they're not profitable to cultivate.)

Easily. It's the same in the post-apocalyptic world.

There are so many spices, just growing everywhere, in a post-apocalyptic landscape (unless it's nuclear) you'd have no issue finding spices or herbs for every meal, they just might not be the herbs or spices you are used to -- but Sorrell is fine with Salmon, and Stinging Nettle Soup is just as good as Cabbage/Spinach Soup.
