      I’m with you I regularly eat spicy food, and also grow my own scorpion and ghost peppers and add them into my cooking. I hate most hot sauces in general, as they’re all burn and no flavour. I have however found some that do buck the trend, but in general I don’t go for hot sauces too often

          I’ve had a couple spicy shark ones that have flavour. They also have the pure extract ones but I usually stay away from those

          There’s a Korean BBQ hot sauce that I think is really good

          There’s a matouks west Indian hot sauce I’ve enjoyed

          I’ve found that hot sauces that are a bit chunkier and have actual ingredients like small chunks of chilli or pineapple tend to have a more balanced flavor and heat profile though

      It’s probably fine for industrial cooking where it’s being heavily diluted. These crisps don’t use it though.

      Why?

      Edit: Nice autodownvote. Yeah, I agree. Nothing artificial should ever be eaten. No extracts. Hell, processed seaweed is too artificial. Frankly, if ypu can’t grow it, we should ban it because I’m an authoritarian tool.
