I don't know anyone who likes hot sauce as much as I do. Mrs Gersen accuses me of putting it on ice cream.

That said, what makes hot sauce great isn't just the heat, it's the flavor. Tabasco is arguably just as hot than Cholula, but it tastes like bile, so I'd never use Tabasco unless there were no other alternative. Seeing a kickstarter for hot sauce that brags "trust the numbers" doesn't fill me with the desire to contribute.

Indeed. I'd argue that after a certain, rather low point, there's no point to more heat since all it does is prevent you from appreciating the other tastes in the food.

Wow, I really expected that comparison to go the other way.

I'm a Crystal fan myself.
