Cholula® has a lot of flavour. It's actually got spices added to it, not just chili peppers and vinegar.

Their Habanero is okay, but I have had many better versions.

Funny story. At Christmas, my friends gave me a bottle of hot sauce that they had never tried, but knew to be pretty hot (it is made with Habanero, Naga/Jolokia, and Capsaicin crystals). I didn't try it before bringing out to use in a restaurant for breakfast. Luckily I decided to try a little first before pouring it on my food. I dipped one tine of my fork in it and tasted it. I couldn't feel my tongue for five minutes. I am not exaggerating.

Well, the owners of the restaurant (this was a Korean family place) saw me tasting the hot sauce and they all wanted to get in on the fun. I warned them to try just a small amount before pouring it all over their food and not being able to eat it. One of the waiters took a toothpick and only put about half a toothpick full in his mouth. He turned bright red and literally couldn't breathe. I was worried that he might have a heart attack or something. It took him about ten minutes to regain his normal colour.

I don't think I am welcome there any more...

This goes more under the "What's for Lunch?" category.

Spinach enchilada (with ranchero sauce) with rice and beans. Also had a very strong Pomegranate Margarita (on the rocks; I hate those frozen ones).

Haha! Next time you are at an event and someone you don't like is there just spike their drink with a little bit of that hot sauce!

I wasn't kidding. The poor guy really had trouble breathing and turned beet red. I haven't been back since and am not so sure I should go back there. "Aren't you the guy that killed Johnny?"

I did warn everyone strictly before they tried it.

Wanna hear the funniest part? It was a British hot sauce that I got at Christmas. Who knew the Brits could made something so nuclear?

This was the culprit:

It's too bad it is so hot as it really has a nice aroma.

"I would advise that this sauce be used with great care and I will not be held liable for any misuse of it."

YIKES

Yeah. Like anyone really reads the warnings on the labels. I have two of theirs; "Son of Smart *rse" is the hotter of the two, but "Smart *rse" is pretty darn nuclear, too. I will end up throwing them away before I use them up.

(And why is "ar­se" a banned word here?)

Why do you buy them if they are too hot???

This is the label warning on 'Smart Ar­se'®:

"Only for the INSANE!!
Add to chillies, sauces, stews,
curries, soups, etc.
USE WITH CARE -
CAN CAUSE BREATHING DIFFICULTIES.
Keep away from children and animals."

Yet, I tried it, anyway.

These were both gifts from (ex)friends.

(ex)girlfriends?

I was kidding about the "ex" part. I think they were trying to kill me off, though.

I love spinach.

Me, too. These were chock full of spinach. I expected it to have a little spinach in it, but these were great.

Did I mention the Pomegranate Margarita?

arugula, tomatoes, cucumbers, basil and grilled chicken!
yum!
