Do you like Hot Sauce?

[Mitzi]

We have a neighbor that LOVES hot sauce. He brags that they can't make it hot enough for him. Well, while on vacation, we went in a store called the Pepper Pot. All they had was hot sauce and pepper stuff. My husband asked for the absolute hottest sauce they had. She gives him a bottle called.....are you ready for this?.....Colon Blow made with Habeneros peppers.
My husband just took it over to our neighbor. He explained to him that this was their HOTTEST sauce and to use very sparingly. Well, this is a man that complains endlessly in restaurants that no hot sauce is hot enough for him.
He saunters over, pours a capful and my husband warns him again. He told him just to taste a drop, not a capful. So, anyway, he drinks a capful. Al said he stood there for an instant and then his face turned red and steam came out of his ears. lol! He ran to the faucet and drinking right out of the faucet while my husband went to the fridge and quickly poured a glass of milk for him. He said he would drink the milk and go, "WHOO HOO!" Then, he'd drink more milk and go, "Whoo Hoo!" lol
Al just talked to him and he said he is still drinking milk and on fire! lol
I guess we found one hot enough for him! LOL!

I practically live on Tabasco, and when we go to the Mexican joints, I gotta have the Habanero sauce on my chips.

The first time I had sushi my dad told me to put alot of the "green stuff" on it. I like hot sauce, but only when i know what to expect. I put a ton of wasabi on my tuna roll and cleared my sinuses right out. I am still trying to get my dad back for that, but I dont think I will. Age and experience will always beat youth and skill.

Try Matouk's sauce. It's hard to find but there's some sites on the net. It's Carribean and it's great. It's one of those that's hot but still tastes good and doesn't over power whatever else you're eating.

I like hotsauce but I have trouble with anything stronger then jalapeno. Even jalapeno can give me problems at times. I once had a friend think it would be funny to put a habanero sauce all over a bite of pizza I had left. I was distracted for a moment when she did it. Wrong move! I had a terrible reaction to it and even had to go to the dr. My lips were very badly blistered and I even had blisters in my mouth. It was several weeks before I had any taste.
She felt so terrible about it but I forgave her. Habanero is EXTREMELY hot and a little drop goes a long way. She liberally soaked the pizza in it! When I bit into it and started choking, she started laughing.....until she saw I was really in trouble. The restaurant mnager came running with milk and that helped but I was at the dr the next day. She went with me, so upset.....and the dr really reamed her out. But, I told him she already felt terrible enough about it. It was just a lapse in judgement. But, if she ever did it again, THEN I would be upset. I don't think I have to worry about it.....She was upset enough for the both of us.

A good few years ago my neighbour visited the West Indies and brought back a few bottles of Cayenne pepper spiced rum. One sip nearly took me head off, so after a polite `thankyou`, the bottle was put away in a cuboard. Spring cleaning a year later and I accidentally drop the bottle onto the red quarry stone floor of the kitchen. Within minutes it had bleached part of the floor pure white Imagine what it does to your stomach !!!!!!!!!!!

Hot sauce, yum! The only thing that comes close is mustard. Check out this site: http://www.mustardmuseum.com

Besides a bunch of mustard there is a hot sauce section within the "Our Online Catalog" section. My wife took me to this place when we were visiting her mother. The guy is obsessed with mustard.

Heh, after you finish with your hot sauce and mustard you can wash it down with a nice caffeinated beverage from here: http://www.thinkgeek.com/stuff/caffeine.html


ubergeek, off topic question...
What's the tech market like down in Charlottesville? My client site is going through chapter 11 and will be having another round of layoffs (probably) next week. They don't have anyone else to do their unix admin work for them, but I'm a contractor. North VA is not looking good right now.
