You clearly have nothing but white people there. I’d be panic buying the Tajin.

Why horde hot sauce when there is no toilet paper!?

They have discovered they have too much toilet paper and need to deplete their supplies.

I’d rather calmly purchase some Sriracha.

I’ve found the newer Tabasco branded Sriracha to be pretty good.

My BIL’s old roommate is from Trinidad and makes homemade jambalaya that is FANTASTIC. He makes 3 flavors - “ White P eople S picy” (1 Ghost Pepper) , “ Adam S picy” (named after my BIL, 2-3 Ghost Peppers), and “ Normal” (6-10 Ghost Peppers).

I didn’t even know that was a thing.

Sriracha is my daily driver hot sauce.

Over the weekend, my  grocery store was sold out of all Cholula besides the tiny bottles of the chipotle flavor. Not being able to buy cleaning wipes or cough syrup didn’t bother me, but no Cholulua?? This is getting real

Do they have any fermented fish

I’ve never been much for hot food myself. My son, though, would be eating the “Normal.”

When people who don’t cook are force to cook for themselves they have to have something to make the results palatable. There’s a reason there’s Tabasco in MREs.

surströmming is one way to social distance!

When I was 6 my dad gave me some kind of really spicy pepper. I thought I was dying, he thought it was hilarious, and my mother was pissed! After that I refused to touch anything remotely spicy, I wouldn’t even eat jalapenos .

Suddenly in the last 2 years I’ve developed a craving for “spicy” food, by which I mean the “Adam Spicy” level on the above scale. Though I weirdly still don’t like jalapenos.

That is soo true.  I like some heat, but as a white guy I can’t tolerate it like some people can.  There’s a Caribbean food truck that comes around occasionally, and their Jerk Chicken is great.  But I know when I eat it it’s going to burn.  I don’t understand how some people take the heat that they do.

I do enjoy watching people’s jaw hit the floor when I tell them how W orcestershire sauce is made.....

It’s more likely they just haven’t restocked the shelves.

I’ve always wanted to try a spicy jerk chicken. Because I’m ghostly white, people always assume I can’t handle anything, then don’t even believe me when I ask for it.

Mind you, tajin isn’t even that spicy .

It’s a regular part of my diet and I haven’t been able to find any at my local grocery store in the last few weeks. Where was I before I clicked over to oppositelock? I was on amazon. Where I ordered a gallon jug of Tabasco. 30 seconds before finding this post.

I guess I’ll give Topatío another shot. Never even heard of Valentina.

A few weeks ago, I might have commented about “Tabasco” being some off-brand imitation . U ntil recently, I totally thought that it was spelled   Tobasco . Can’t believe I never noticed tha t before. That’s gonna take some getting used to.

Tabasco was the bomb  in MREs.

It makes everything better, although this is amateur hour if they didn’t already hoard hot sauce.
