does anybody like hot sauce?

With the stay at home, this kind of stuff has been used up. I had a Tabasco, then I had some Asian chili oil, all gone.
So my wife says you have something in the back there (of the cupboard). I pull it out, and it's Frank's expired in 2012. Buddy said it's fine, but I didn't want to use it.
Start looking online and here we go again, gouge central! lol
Scored amazon Frank's for $4.25. But it's not hot, it's more like a dipping sauce.
In my travels I found you can't really get Tabasco online for a fair price, but they have an online store. and I saw there were things I never heard of, Scorpion, Habanero, reserve, etc.
The Scoville scale says
Frank's 450
Tabasco 2,500-5,000 (not sure why a range?)
Tabasco Habanero > 7,000
Tabasco Scorpion 35,000
So I ordered some Scorpion, Habanero, and the regular stuff. Was 10% off and free shipping--on the UPS truck for delivery today! Made it out of LA before the bad weather. It's the little things.
p.s. again why is the original Tabasco a range of 2500-5000, one would think it's consistent...
Chile?? HOT??
The only time I lobstered (turned red all over) was at an Indian restaurant in Toronto in the late '60s. Why do people think chile is hot?
Tabasco
Yum!
Now
that I broke open the Tabasco Habenero, I'm loving it. Seriously. I think the 2X regular Tabasco is perfect. I can still slather it on whether or not that's the right way to use hot sauce or not. I know that will not be the case with Scorpion.
The bottle is like a little more than 1/4 gone in 2 days lol
Habanero
There is a chain of stores similar to Walmart in Mexico "Soriana" and they had their own "Soriana" brand of Habanero sauce. Good and hot but not only hot it also had flavor.
Unfortunately they don't seem to make or sell it any longer.

New Mexico Chili Cook-Off
If you can read this whole story without laughing, then there's no hope for you. I was crying by the end. This is an actual account as relayed to paramedics at a chili cook-off in New Mexico...
That is hilarious! And very apt; people differ a lot in what they consider good spicy heat vs. too little vs. too much.
At least there's a choice now. Not so much in New Mexico but in many parts of the country for a long time, it was Tabasco sauce or no hot sauce. But now there are multiple choices available most everywhere.
And unfortunately for me, almost everyone in my family and friends group does not like spicy food at all, not even with a little bit of Tabasco. So if I'm cooking food they're going to eat, I make it bland and add heat to my plate later.

Truff Sauce
I've tried the new Truff hot sauce that says it's made with truffle oil. It's OK but my go to is still Cholula.
