Better stock up on Tabasco.

[trof]

For the true TABASCO® lover, it just doesn't get any better than our Gallon Jugs of TABASCO® brand Pepper Sauces. You name the flavor! For those who use it on everything from eggs, salads, soups, chicken and burgers, to pizza, sandwiches, sides, rice and beans, they'll always have enough to go around.

So far, looks like Gustav is headed straight for Avery Island.
That's where the Tabasco plant is.
It's all lowland and swamp around there, so if there's a bad storm surge they're sure to get flooding.

1. I have a friend who carries Tabasco in a belt holster everywhere he goes. n/t

2. Cholula > Tabasco

:evilgrin:

3. Cholula >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Tabasco!

:D
Cajun Catsup has no flavor. It's just hot.

[trof]

5. Is not not not!

[Gormy Cuss]

9. Cholula is great. So is Tabasco.

They're just very different. :D

I've been to Avery Island -- wouldn't want to be there during a big hurricane!

[trof]

13. Ah, another pilgrim.

May the sauce be with you, brother.

[200overcast]

17. Actually I like this one better than either but it's damnably hard to find!

(just costs too much online for me with the shipping, ouch) :-)

18. 200overcast. I think you're at minimums.

I definitely handle habanero sauces with care.
Hotchy Mama!
Welcome to DU.
:hi:

[trof]

4. Is not!

8. I got Cholula too.

Matter of fact, there are probably 2 dozen different hot sauces in the fridge and pantry right now.
Cholula is a DIFFERENT tasting sauce from Tabasco.
But not >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>.

Try Dave's Insanity sometime.
I'm too damn old to be able to handle it now, but back in the day...
HOOOOOOOWEEEEEEEEE!!!!!! SMOKIN'!!!!!!!!!!

[Greyskye]

16. Dave's is the BOMB

My favorite hot sauce, and it strips waxed floors and cleans driveway oil stains as well!

19. Great rust remover, nut loosener too.

Mods: This is NOT a sex thread.

Flavor plus a little heat. Something for everybody plus the flavor of the islands.

25. get thee behind me, satan!

Tabasco is the One True Hot Sauce. We are not worthy....

[madrchsod]

6. my daughter puts t sauce on cheap pizza.....

the last i saw the german may hit west of new orleans in the atchafalaya river basin......is the dam going to hold?

11. My prediction:

IF it continues on present track...
Hits the LA 'coast' (it's so damn low and wet and swampy I don't know if you could call it a 'coast') southwest of Houma and follows the swampy 'coastline' up to just south of Lafayette, where it gets it's first bite of solid ground.

[Festivito]

7. Yummmm! /nt

[texasleo]

10. I'll never understand the idea of "hot" just to be hot. Tasty hot > HOT hot

:headbang:

[trof]

12. Yeah, Dave's Insanity is just showing off.

Mucho Macho.
And lethal.

[Fox Mulder]

14. Forget Tabasco. Sriracha is better.

[Tandalayo_Scheisskopf]

20. Bingo.

Sriracha is truly The Elixir of Life. I eat it on everything.

But dessert. ;-)

[Fox Mulder]

21. I know.

I love it. :)

[BlooInBloo]

15. Tapetio here, thanks.

28. Tapatio for me too.

And I'm in the land of Tapatios (Guadalajara), so I'm sort of in a weird heaven. A lovely place that gives me massive heartburn.

[trof]

22. I can't believe there are no recs for this topic.

What's the matter with you people?
;-)

[MattBaggins]

23. Now if only I could get some

Dickens Cider Jugs

[Bigmack]

26. Tabasco's new Chipotle flavor...

is the nectar of the gods.

I don't use it on ice cream, but that's my only exception.

Better than teenage sex!

May the gods of flavor protect Avery Island.

[Withywindle]

27. OH MY GOD.

I don't give a damn about gas -- haven't owned a car in 16 years, don't need to-- but if there is a Tabasco shortage I will FREAK!!!
