Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Accounting Policies	ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all the information and notes required by United States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for complete financial statements. In our opinion, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, which are of a normal and recurring nature, necessary to present fairly the financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented. The results of consolidated operations for the six-month period ended May 31, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Historically, our net sales, net income and cash flow from operations have been lower in the first half of the fiscal year and higher in the second half of the fiscal year. The historical increase in net sales, net income and cash flow from operations in the second half of the year has largely been due to the consumer business cycle in the U.S., where customers typically purchase more products in the fourth quarter due to the Thanksgiving and Christmas holiday seasons. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended November 30, 2022. Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted In 2022, we adopted the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-06 Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Deferral of the Sunset Date of Topic 848 which deferred the sunset date of Topic 848 which provides optional expedients for a limited time for accounting for transactions affected by the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) being discontinued. Arrangements that were entered into in 2022, including our fixed to variable interest rate swaps expiring in April 2030, and cross-currency interest rate swaps expiring in April 2030, do not use LIBOR as a reference rate. During the first quarter of 2023 we amended our interest rate swaps expiring in November 2025 and August 2027, and the cross currency and interest rate swaps expiring in August 2027 to no longer use LIBOR. Also, in March 2023 we amended our five-year revolving credit facility expiring in July 2026 to no longer use LIBOR. Our adoption of this standard was completed in the second quarter of 2023. There was no material impact to our consolidated financial statements. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements — Pending Adoption In September 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-04: Liabilities - Supplier Finance Programs (Topic 450-50): Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations that requires entities that use supplier finance programs in connection with the purchase of goods and services to disclose the key terms of the programs and information about obligations outstanding at the end of the reporting period, including a roll forward of those obligations. The guidance does not affect the recognition, measurement or financial statement presentation of supplier finance program obligations. The new standard’s requirements to disclose the key terms of the programs and information about obligations outstanding are effective for all interim and annual periods of our fiscal year ending November 30, 2024. The new standard’s requirement to disclose a roll forward of obligations outstanding will be effective for our fiscal year ending November 30, 2025. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact that this new guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements.

Special Charges [Abstract]
Special Charges And Transaction And Integration Expenses	SPECIAL CHARGES AND TRANSACTION AND INTEGRATION EXPENSES Special Charges In our consolidated income statement, we include a separate line item captioned "Special charges" in arriving at our consolidated operating income. Special charges consist of expenses, including related impairment charges, associated with certain actions undertaken to reduce fixed costs, simplify or improve processes, and improve our competitiveness and are of such significance in terms of both up-front costs and organizational/structural impact to require advance approval by our Management Committee, comprised of our senior management, including our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. Expenses associated with any approved action are classified as special charges upon recognition and monitored on an on-going basis through completion. Certain ancillary expenses related to these actions approved by our Management Committee do not qualify for accrual upon approval but are included as special charges as incurred during the course of the actions. We continue to evaluate changes to our organizational structure to reduce fixed costs, simplify or improve processes, and improve our competitiveness. The following is a summary of special charges recognized in the three and six months ended May 31, 2023 and 2022 (in millions): Three months ended May 31, Six months ended May 31, 2023 2022 2023 2022 Employee severance and related benefits $ 7.0 $ 7.5 $ 31.8 $ 21.7 Other costs Cash 5.8 2.1 8.0 6.0 Non-Cash 0.4 19.1 1.2 20.5 Total special charges 13.2 28.7 41.0 48.2 Gain on sale of exited brand — (13.6) — (13.6) Total $ 13.2 $ 15.1 $ 41.0 $ 34.6 During the three months ended May 31, 2023, we recorded $13.2 million of special charges, consisting principally of $8.6 million associated with our Global Operating Effectiveness (GOE) program, as more fully described below, $1.3 million associated with the transition of a manufacturing facility in Europe, Middle East, and Africa (EMEA), as more fully described below, and streamlining actions of $3.2 million in the Americas region. During the six months ended May 31, 2023, we recorded $41.0 million of special charges, consisting principally of $33.4 million associated with our GOE program, as more fully described below, $2.2 million associated with the transition of a manufacturing facility in EMEA, as more fully described below, and streamlining actions of $4.5 million in the Americas region, and $0.9 million in the EMEA region. During the three months ended May 31, 2022, we recorded $15.1 million of net special charges. Those special charges principally consisted of $22.2 million associated with the exit of our consumer business in Russia, as more fully described below, $2.5 million associated with the transition of a manufacturing facility in EMEA, as more fully described below, and streamlining actions of $3.2 million in the Americas region, and $2.8 million in the EMEA region. These charges were offset by a $13.6 million gain, on the sale of our Kohinoor brand discussed below as well as a reversal of $2.2 million of estimated costs associated with the exit of our rice product line in India upon settlement of a supply agreement related to that product line. During the six months ended May 31, 2022, we recorded $34.6 million of net special charges. Those special charges consisted principally of $22.2 million associated with the exit of our consumer business in Russia, as more fully described below, $17.4 million associated with the transition of a manufacturing facility in EMEA, as more fully described below, and streamlining actions of $5.3 million in the Americas region, and $4.3 million in the EMEA region. These charges were offset by a $13.6 million gain, on the sale of our Kohinoor brand discussed below as well as a reversal of $2.2 million of estimated costs associated with the exit of our rice product line in India upon settlement of a supply agreement related to that product line. In 2022, our Management Committee approved the GOE program. The GOE program included a voluntary retirement plan, which included enhanced separation benefits to certain U.S. employees aged 55 years or older with at least ten years of service to the company. This voluntary retirement plan commenced in November 2022 and participants were required to submit their notifications by December 30, 2022. As of November 30, 2022, we had accrued special charges of $5.6 million, consisting of employee severance and related benefits. Upon all eligible employees submitting their notifications by the end of December 2022, we accrued an additional $19.7 million during the first quarter of 2023. All related payments will be made in fiscal year 2023 as all of the affected employees will leave the company in 2023. Other special charges recognized during the three months ended May 31, 2023, under our GOE program included $7.0 million in severance and related benefits costs and $1.6 million of third party expenses and other costs. Other special charges recognized during the six-months ended May 31, 2023, under our GOE program included $11.5 million in severance and related benefits costs and $2.2 million of third party expenses and other costs. In 2022, our Management Committee approved an initiative to consolidate our manufacturing operations in the United Kingdom into a net-zero carbon condiments manufacturing and distribution center facility with state-of-the-art technology. We expect to execute these changes to our supply chain operations and improve profitability, from a combination of lower headcount and non-headcount costs, by consolidating our operations into a scalable platform while expanding our capacity. We expect the cost of the initiative to approximate $40 million which will be recognized as special charges in our consolidated income statement during 2022 and 2023. Of that $40 million, we expect the costs to include employee severance and related benefits, non-cash accelerated depreciation, equipment relocation costs, decommissioning and other property related lease exit costs, all directly related to the initiative. During the three months ended May 31, 2023, we recognized $0.4 million in accelerated depreciation and $0.9 million in third party expenses and other costs. During the six months ended May 31, 2023, we recognized $0.8 million in accelerated depreciation and $1.4 million in third party expenses and other costs. During the three months ended May 31, 2022, we recognized $1.3 million in accelerated depreciation and $1.2 million in third party expenses and other costs. During the six months ended May 31, 2022, we recognized $12.5 million in severance and related benefits costs, $2.7 million in accelerated depreciation and $2.2 million in third party expenses and other costs. As of May 31, 2023, accruals associated with special charges of $29.9 million, are included in other accrued liabilities in our consolidated balance sheet. The following is a breakdown by business segment of special charges for the three and six months ended May 31, 2023 and 2022 (in millions): Three months ended May 31, Six months ended May 31, 2023 2022 2023 2022 Consumer segment $ 8.4 $ 10.7 $ 27.4 $ 14.3 Flavor solutions segment 4.8 4.4 13.6 20.3 Total special charges $ 13.2 $ 15.1 $ 41.0 $ 34.6 Integration Expenses

Financial Instruments

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]
Financial Instruments	FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS On April 6, 2023, we issued $500 million aggregate principal amount of 4.950% unsecured senior notes due 2033. Interest is payable semiannually in April and October of each year, beginning on October 15, 2023. The net proceeds received from the issuance of these notes of $496.4 million were used to repay a portion of the Company's outstanding commercial paper borrowings. As part of the issuance of new debt, we entered and settled treasury locks in a notional amount of $250.0 million to manage our interest rate risk associated with the issuance of the unsecured senior notes. We designated the treasury lock arrangements as cash flow hedges with the realized loss of $2.6 million to be amortized to interest expense over the life of the underlying debt. As of May 31, 2023, we had a 364-day $500 million revolving credit facility outstanding which was scheduled to expire in July 2023. In June 2023, we entered into a 364-day $500 million revolving credit facility which will expire in June 2024 and simultaneously cancelled the 364-day facility expiring in July 2023. The current pricing for that credit facility, on a fully drawn basis, is SOFR + 1.23%. The pricing of the credit facility is based on a credit rating grid that contains a fully drawn maximum pricing of the credit facility equal to SOFR + 1.60%. The provisions of this revolving credit facility restrict subsidiary indebtedness and require us to maintain a minimum interest coverage ratio, consistent with our $1.5 billion five-year revolving credit facility. We do not expect that this covenant would limit our access to this revolving credit facility for the foreseeable future. We use derivative financial instruments to enhance our ability to manage risk, including foreign currency, net investment and interest rate exposures, which exist as part of our ongoing business operations. We do not enter into contracts for trading purposes, nor are we a party to any leveraged derivative instrument, and all derivatives are designated as hedges. We are not a party to master netting arrangements, and we do not offset the fair value of derivative contracts with the same counterparty in our financial statement disclosures. The use of derivative financial instruments is monitored through regular communication with senior management and the use of written guidelines. Foreign currency exchange risk. We are potentially exposed to foreign currency fluctuations affecting net investments in subsidiaries, transactions (both third-party and intercompany) and earnings denominated in foreign currencies. We assess foreign currency risk based on transactional cash flows and translational volatility and may enter into forward contract and currency swaps with highly-rated financial institutions to reduce fluctuations in the long or short currency positions. Currency swap agreements are established in conjunction with the terms of the underlying debt issues. At May 31, 2023, we had foreign currency exchange contracts to purchase or sell $840.0 million of foreign currencies as compared to $560.5 million at November 30, 2022. All of these contracts were designated as hedges of anticipated purchases denominated in a foreign currency or hedges of foreign currency denominated assets or liabilities. Hedge ineffectiveness was not material. All foreign currency exchange contracts outstanding at May 31, 2023 have durations of less than 18 months, including $154.8 million of notional contracts that have durations of less than one month and are used to hedge short-term cash flow funding. Contracts which are designated as hedges of anticipated purchases denominated in a foreign currency (generally purchases of inventory in U.S. dollars by operating units outside the U.S.) are considered cash flow hedges. The gains and losses on these contracts are deferred in accumulated other comprehensive income until the hedged item is recognized in cost of goods sold, at which time the net amount deferred in accumulated other comprehensive income is also recognized in cost of goods sold. Hedges of foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities include foreign currency exchange contracts with a notional value of $725.6 million at May 31, 2023. These foreign currency exchange contracts manage both exposure to currency fluctuations in certain intercompany loans between subsidiaries as well as currency exposure to third-party non-functional currency assets or liabilities. Gains and losses from contracts that are designated as hedges of assets, liabilities or firm commitments are recognized through income, offsetting the change in fair value of the hedged item. We also utilize cross currency interest rate swap contracts that are designated as net investment hedges. Any gains or losses on net investment hedges are included in foreign currency translation adjustments in accumulated other comprehensive loss. Interest rate risk. We finance a portion of our operations with both fixed and variable rate debt instruments, principally commercial paper, notes and bank loans. We utilize interest rate derivative contracts, including interest rate swap agreements, to minimize worldwide financing costs and to achieve a desired mix of variable and fixed rate debt.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements	6 Months Ended

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value Measurements	FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS Fair value can be measured using valuation techniques, such as the market approach (comparable market prices), the income approach (present value of future income or cash flow), and the cost approach (cost to replace the service capacity of an asset or replacement cost). Accounting standards utilize a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The following is a brief description of those three levels: • Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. • Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active. • Level 3: Unobservable inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions. At May 31, 2023 and November 30, 2022, we had no financial assets or liabilities that were subject to a level 3 fair value measurement. Our population of financial assets and liabilities subject to fair value measurements on a recurring basis are as follows (in millions): May 31, 2023 Fair Value Level 1 Level 2 Assets Cash and cash equivalents $ 127.4 $ 127.4 $ — Insurance contracts 110.8 — 110.8 Bonds and other long-term investments 3.9 3.9 — Foreign currency derivatives 8.8 — 8.8 Cross currency contracts 32.9 — 32.9 Total $ 283.8 $ 131.3 $ 152.5 Liabilities Foreign currency derivatives $ 11.1 $ — $ 11.1 Interest rate derivatives 44.3 — 44.3 Cross currency contracts 6.4 — 6.4 Total $ 61.8 $ — $ 61.8 November 30, 2022 Fair Value Level 1 Level 2 Assets Cash and cash equivalents $ 334.0 $ 334.0 $ — Insurance contracts 110.0 — 110.0 Bonds and other long-term investments 5.1 5.1 — Foreign currency derivatives 11.0 — 11.0 Cross currency contracts 44.5 — 44.5 Total $ 504.6 $ 339.1 $ 165.5 Liabilities Foreign currency derivatives $ 1.5 $ — $ 1.5 Interest rate derivatives 42.4 — 42.4 Cross currency contracts 8.3 — 8.3 Total $ 52.2 $ — $ 52.2 At May 31, 2023 and November 30, 2022, the carrying amounts of interest rate derivatives, foreign currency derivatives, cross currency contracts, insurance contracts, and bond and other long-term investments were equal to their respective fair values. Because of their short-term nature, the amounts reported in the balance sheet for cash and cash equivalents, receivables, short-term borrowings and trade accounts payable approximate fair value. Investments in affiliates are not readily marketable, and it is not practicable to estimate their fair value. Insurance contracts, bonds, and other long-term investments are comprised of fixed income and equity securities held for certain non-qualified U.S. employee benefit plans and are stated at fair value on the balance sheet. The fair values of insurance contracts are based upon the underlying values of the securities in which they are invested and are from quoted market prices from various stock and bond exchanges for similar type assets. The fair values of bonds and other long-term investments are based on quoted market prices from various stock and bond exchanges. The fair values for interest rate derivatives, foreign currency derivatives, and cross currency contracts are based on values for similar instruments using models with market-based inputs. The following table sets forth the carrying amounts and fair values of our long-term debt including the current portion thereof (in millions): May 31, 2023 November 30, 2022 Carrying amount $ 4,403.3 $ 3,912.9 Level 1 valuation techniques $ 3,936.8 $ 3,424.8 Level 2 valuation techniques 167.9 176.1 Total fair value $ 4,104.7 $ 3,600.9

Retirement Benefits [Abstract]
Employee Benefit and Retirement Plans	EMPLOYEE BENEFIT AND RETIREMENT PLANS We sponsor defined benefit pension plans in the U.S. and certain foreign locations. In addition, we sponsor defined contribution plans in the U.S. We also contribute to defined contribution plans in locations outside the U.S., including government-sponsored retirement plans. We also currently provide postretirement medical and life insurance benefits to certain U.S. employees and retirees. We previously froze the accrual of future benefits under certain defined benefit pension plans in the U.S. and certain foreign locations. Although our defined benefit plans in the U.S., United Kingdom and Canada have generally been frozen, employees who are participants in the plans retained benefits accumulated up to the date of the freeze, based on credited service and eligible earnings, in accordance with the terms of the plans.

Stock-Based Compensation	STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION We have four types of stock-based compensation awards: restricted stock units ("RSUs"), stock options, company stock awarded as part of our long-term performance plan ("LTPP") and price-vested stock options. The following table sets forth the stock-based compensation expense recorded in selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expense (in millions): Three months ended May 31, Six months ended May 31, 2023 2022 2023 2022 Stock-based compensation expense $ 26.7 $ 25.8 $ 38.5 $ 36.9 Our 2023 annual grant of stock options and RSUs occurred in the second quarter, similar to the 2022 annual grant. The weighted -average grant-date fair value of each stock option granted in 2023 was $19.35 and in 2022 was $22.14 as calculated under a lattice pricing model. Substantially all of the stock options and RSUs granted in 2023 and 2022 vest ratably over a three-year period or, if earlier, upon the retirement eligibility date of the holder. The fair values of stock option grants in the stated periods were computed using the following range of assumptions for our various stock compensation plans: 2023 2022 Risk-free interest rates 3.5% - 4.9% 0.2% - 2.5% Dividend yield 1.9% 1.5% Expected volatility 21.8% 21.2% Expected lives (in years) 7.3 7.6 The following is a summary of our stock option activity for the six months ended May 31, 2023 and 2022: 2023 2022 (shares in millions) Number Weighted- Number Weighted- Outstanding at beginning of period 4.8 $ 67.08 5.0 $ 59.71 Granted 0.9 81.79 0.7 97.26 Exercised (0.2) 46.90 (0.7) 46.25 Outstanding at end of the period 5.5 $ 70.12 5.0 $ 67.06 Exercisable at end of the period 4.0 $ 63.77 3.6 $ 57.87 As of May 31, 2023, the intrinsic value (the difference between the exercise price and the market price) for all options outstanding was $95.8 million and for options currently exercisable was $92.4 million.

Business Segments

Segment Reporting [Abstract]
Business Segments	BUSINESS SEGMENTS We operate in two business segments: consumer and flavor solutions. The consumer and flavor solutions segments manufacture, market and distribute spices, herbs, seasoning mixes, condiments and other flavorful products throughout the world. Our consumer segment sells to retail channels, including grocery, mass merchandise, warehouse clubs, discount and drug stores, and e-commerce under the “McCormick” brand and a variety of brands around the world, including “French’s”, “Frank’s RedHot”, “OLD BAY”, “Lawry’s”, “Zatarain’s”, “Simply Asia”, “Thai Kitchen”, “Ducros”, “Vahine”, “Cholula”, “Schwartz”, “Club House”, “Kamis”, “DaQiao”, “La Drogheria”, “Stubb's”, and “Gourmet Garden”. Our flavor solutions segment sells to food manufacturers and the foodservice industry both directly and indirectly through distributors, with the exception of our business in China, where foodservice sales are managed by and reported in our consumer segment. In each of our segments, we produce and sell many individual products which are similar in composition and nature. With their primary attribute being flavor, the products within each of our segments are regarded as fairly homogenous. It is impracticable to segregate and identify sales and profits for each of these individual product lines. We measure segment performance based on operating income excluding special charges, as this activity is managed separately from the business segments. We also exclude transaction and integration expenses related to our acquisitions from our measure of segment performance as these expenses are similarly managed separately from the business segments. These transaction and integration expenses excluded from our segment performance measure include the amortization of the acquisition-date fair value adjustment of inventories that is included in cost of goods sold, costs directly associated with that acquisition and costs associated with integrating the businesses. Although the segments are managed separately due to their distinct distribution channels and marketing strategies, manufacturing and warehousing are often integrated to maximize cost efficiencies. We do not segregate jointly utilized assets by individual segment for purposes of internal reporting, performance evaluation, or capital allocation. Because of manufacturing integration for certain products within the segments, products are not sold from one segment to another but rather inventory is transferred at cost. Intersegment sales are not material.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Accounting and disclosure charges	Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted In 2022, we adopted the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-06 Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Deferral of the Sunset Date of Topic 848 which deferred the sunset date of Topic 848 which provides optional expedients for a limited time for accounting for transactions affected by the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) being discontinued. Arrangements that were entered into in 2022, including our fixed to variable interest rate swaps expiring in April 2030, and cross-currency interest rate swaps expiring in April 2030, do not use LIBOR as a reference rate. During the first quarter of 2023 we amended our interest rate swaps expiring in November 2025 and August 2027, and the cross currency and interest rate swaps expiring in August 2027 to no longer use LIBOR. Also, in March 2023 we amended our five-year revolving credit facility expiring in July 2026 to no longer use LIBOR. Our adoption of this standard was completed in the second quarter of 2023. There was no material impact to our consolidated financial statements. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements — Pending Adoption In September 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-04: Liabilities - Supplier Finance Programs (Topic 450-50): Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations that requires entities that use supplier finance programs in connection with the purchase of goods and services to disclose the key terms of the programs and information about obligations outstanding at the end of the reporting period, including a roll forward of those obligations. The guidance does not affect the recognition, measurement or financial statement presentation of supplier finance program obligations. The new standard’s requirements to disclose the key terms of the programs and information about obligations outstanding are effective for all interim and annual periods of our fiscal year ending November 30, 2024. The new standard’s requirement to disclose a roll forward of obligations outstanding will be effective for our fiscal year ending November 30, 2025. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact that this new guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements.
