meanwhile chinese cooking: i’ll have all 3 at once please
And it’s so. Damn. Delicious.
And Indian cooking! Curries are love. Especially with an immersion blender.
If no eat, why so delicious?
Why is the chili wearing a cape? Or is that… hair?
Not brrrrr, more like kssss
It’s sort of what happens though. A plant gets a defense mechanism, it becomes more abundant, something will target that abundant food source.
Life wouldn’t be the same without Tabasco. How could I ever eat my cotton candy or cereals without copious amounts of it?
This is a low shenanigan…
Are you calling shenanigans?
I have called shenanigans.
I’m actually surprised that I’ve never found cotton candy coated with tajin, now that you mention it.
Tabazco is for kids, try this weapon grade sauce (9 millon SHU)

It’s not about quantity, it’s about quality. Tabasco’s refined taste all the way.
Have you tried cholula? It’s tobasco, but with flavor beyond the vinegar base. Often cheaper as well
Nope, but now I want to. Thanks.
Cholula is my go-to sauce that I can get anywhere for cheap. If I can get it, Blair’s Original Death Sauce is the way to go.
It is about quality, that’s why I freakin’ hate tabasco
So your personal preferences dictate whether a product is good or not, and whether other people should also like it (“I do not like Tabasco, therefore its quality is shit”). Right. I’ll be sure to defer to you in my future personal tastes. 🙄
This is not a pissing contest about who can hold the most Carolina Reapers in. It’s a really subjective thing, which is why when the other commenter implied it was about hotness scale (which is valid foe those who go by it when choosing their preferred hot sauce), I personally go more by flavor. At least the other comment, while somewhat in condescending tone, was a way more productive opinion, backed with sources and actual measurements. 🤷♂️
Cheers.
Lmao, so when you say its good, your personal preference isn’t dictating anything, but when they say its bad, their personal preference is? You’re allowed to say you like it, they’re allowed to say they don’t. They didn’t say anything about your taste so stop being a baby and accept other people have different tastes.
Damn, the irony and gaslighting, not to mention selective reading. And on such a small and insignificant topic, no less. Quite the teen behaviour.
You’ll have to get in line and convince me if you want me to engage with your cheap attempts at proving yourself. Same for any other frustrated teen wanting to engage in keyboard warrior-ing.
Don’t take it so hard, champ. This is a friendly and funny meme thread about spicy sauces. Such a shame to hijack jokes to derail it into pettiness like that. Reddit much? 🤔
I didn’t say anything about heat, just that tabasco is not a high quality sauce - It’s basically just red vinegar. If that’s what you’re into, enjoy. But you’re missing out on the good stuff if you’re settling for that
The quality is fine. It’s just vinegar, salt and peppers. It’s consistent and the peppers are aged in oak barrels. You may not like it and that’s fine too, I don’t keep it in my kitchen either, but it’s not low quality.
I used to like it, but more recently I’ve tried other brands and now tabasco just tastes bland in comparison. Last I bought it, I had to empty half the bottle in the dish and didn’t even taste it. I know they have different hotness scales, not sure if the one I bought was the hottest out there, but it was the hottest they had at the store.
What a bizarre comment. People don’t need to have what opinions are explained, do they?
It’s the Pabst or maybe Bud-light of hot sauces. I’ll use it if it’s the only option, but give me 5 bucks and 5 minutes at any grocery store, and I’ll find somthing better.
Just pepper spray your mouth at that point.
I dunno, seems to have worked out for the chillis - there’s more of them now than ever before
That’s because evolution is a results-driven process. All that matters is making viable offspring. Doesn’t matter how it gets done.
It’s funny if you think about it: Plant makes chemical (capsaicin) to help it thrive > humans love the painful spice, start growing and propagating peppers > Peppers spread grow like crazy. Evolution working exactly as it should
Does anyone have an explanation for why they would evolve to prevent being eaten by mammals? I would think having mammals help spread their seeds would be beneficial?
Birds eat them without feeling the heat. And they can spread seeds more effectively as you can imagine.
Found the answer myself. Protects against fungal attacks. Also birds don’t have the same receptors to capsaicin.
Adding to the other responses, birds have simple digestion systems and the seed makes it into the poop, which birds do in flight so the seed will spread. Mammals digestive systems would destroy the seeds before they can spread
Tobacco plants: produce nicotine, a toxic alkaloid
Humans: imma smoke that shiiiiit
We like our poisons in just the rights amounts.
Humans: I will now cultivate you, export you, protect you and make sure you’re growing well so I can keep smoking you despite a 50% chance of dying from it.
Tobacco clearly has the last laugh in this story.

Well, it’s not like we’re immortal if we abstain.
Every second I’ve lived so far, I haven’t died, so if we simply take that pattern and extrapolate it for each future second…
I am
With a name like The Fartographer, I’m inclined to believe you. 👍
Until proof to the contrary, so am I
Let’s go fight in an epic clash of the immortals! First one to die, loses!
I dunno, it could go on forever
Sometimes it also makes your ass go brrrrrr…
In the meantime, birds be like: “ultrahot? nom nom fruity”
If not delicious then why delicious shaped?
Plant: “I will let you feel pain”. Humans: “Jokes on you, I’m into that shit”
Is it ironic that those two sauces aren’t really that hot? 😂
Delicious, yes! But very low on the Scoville scale for hot sauce.
Sriracha is now completely random from bottle to bottle. It goes from Tabasco to Carolina Reaper with no visual indicator. Turns out fucking over your loyal farmers and having to constantly scrounge has negative consequences…
Is Tabasco delicious? I find the Sriracha from couple of years ago delicious (the current one is much worse), but Tabasco always tasted like a white vinegar mixed with capsaicin.
Yeah, Tabasco is the weakest link when it comes to hotsauce. Sriracha definitely is a step up, but even that has to move aside for the Buldak Sauce.
Buldak has become my go-to hotsauce. It’s so damned good.
Tabasco sauce, and the peppers, are good for some foods, not so much for others. There is no ULTIMATE hot sauce, just what works.
Tabasco is my breakfast hot sauce. Goes on omelettes, sausage, etc. More flavor than spice, really, just a little kick.
Yeah, Tabasco is overrated. Get Louisiana Hot Sauce instead. A little less heat, but tastes waaaay better.
Tabasco always tasted like a white vinegar mixed with capsaicin.
Exactly! Delicious.
Valentina is my favorite. Both the black and yellow labels are good, but I like drenching shit with the yellow (milder one).
the only hot sauce i’ve yet to actually find appealing is sambal olek, somehow the heat in that just makes me salivate and kinda feels more like sourness, as opposed to everything else where it’s just pain and like… no real flavour? with sambal olek i can actually taste the flavour in it.
