Life wouldn't be the same without Tabasco. How could I ever eat my cotton candy or cereals without copious amounts of it?

[-] Gullible@sh.itjust.works 22 points 2 weeks ago

I’m actually surprised that I’ve never found cotton candy coated with tajin, now that you mention it.

[-] Snowclone@lemmy.world 7 points 2 weeks ago

This is a low shenanigan..

[-] arrow74@lemm.ee 6 points 2 weeks ago

Are you calling shenanigans?

[-] Snowclone@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

I have called shenanigans.

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.

[-] Gullible@sh.itjust.works 20 points 2 weeks ago

Have you tried cholula? It’s tobasco, but with flavor beyond the vinegar base. Often cheaper as well

[-] hikuro93@lemmy.ca 11 points 2 weeks ago

Nope, but now I want to. Thanks.

[-] frezik@midwest.social 2 points 2 weeks ago

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.

Shit, hard to find vinegar based sauces without vinegar as the #1 ingredient. Thanks for the recommendation! I’ve been using Melinda’s xxx hot, but it’s a pain to find. Feels like I’m playing hot sauce bingo, with all these “rare” sauces I’m juggling to stay sated

It is about quality, that's why I freakin' hate tabasco

[-] Bytemeister@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

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.

[-] hikuro93@lemmy.ca 4 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

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.

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

[-] slackassassin@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 weeks ago

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.

[-] SorryQuick@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 weeks ago

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.

[-] bilb@lem.monster 1 points 2 weeks ago

What a bizarre comment. People don't need to have what opinions are explained, do they?

[-] hikuro93@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Bizarre is hijacking jokes and memes to virtue-signal and crow about what you think is good or not. And don't conflate personal opinions with objective quality, that's the mistake many people make that triggers an explanation on what opinions are and their worth.

Do like the others and take that frustration elsewhere, as I didn't engage with this meme post to battle semantics with frustrated reddit users. That's my opinion for you and of you, do what you will with it.

[-] Retropunk64@lemmy.world -1 points 2 weeks ago

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.

[-] hikuro93@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

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? 🤔

[-] Zerush@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 weeks ago

Every chilli sauce do it, the only difference is how spicy it is and the among of sauce you add to the food. A little spicy until a circulatory collapse and halucinations depends on the taste of each.
