They aren’t even hot. If something is called “Diablo” or “volcano” it should be required to have more heat than an out of season jalapeño

Aren't they breeding jalapeños to be as unspicy as possible now, too? So that large "hot sauce" (lol) bottlers can dial in their desired heat level with pure capsaicin. You know, instead of actually making a good sauce.

They are, and most peppers in a store are bred with heat averse tastes in mind to begin with (the only good habaneros I’ve had were grown by friends).

Diablo sauce kinda tastes bad too. Fire sauce is much better.

Personally I like it, but I’m also a weirdo who like bitter and acidic more than sweet

It's that "slightly spoiled adobo" meets "electric eel jizz" taste that turns people off. I'm still into it; it's better than whatever the fuck McDonald's has been doing with genocidal nugget sauces.
