This past Christmas, my parents gifted me a package with thirty different hot sauces. Hot sauces from “around the world” it says. I have no doubt that many of these sauces are simply the same sauce with a spice that is indiciative of the region thrown in. Hot sauce plus…. creole spice? Louisiana hot sauce! Hot sauce plus… maple spice? Canadian hot sauce!
I’m always a fan of food gifts, consumables in general really. However, as I grow older I’ve noticed a proclivity for heartburn at the drop of a hat from foods that I was unaware had any spice whatsoever. That being said, I am grateful for the gift and plan to take this opportunity to try as well as discuss my thoughts on all thirty sauces. I’ve got the Pepto handy. Let’s go!
