Hot Sauces - Your "Desert Island" favorite? [View all]

Hot Sauces - Your "Desert Island" favorite?

Over the decades I've tried tens of different mexican style hot sauce brands and we keep at least eight types on our fridge door at all times.

However, my general go-to sauce and Desert Island fav would have to be Tapatio.

How about you guys?

Others that rotate in & out of our fridge:

Cholula: Reg., Chipotle, Sweet Habanero (fav) varieties.

El Yucateco: Green and Red (yummy, but funky preservatives though)

Pain Is Good (no it's not, waaaaay too hot)

Melindas, Reg.

Pico Pica: Hot and Taco sauces

Dancin' Skeleton

Tabasco Reg.

Mezetta Taco (red)

La Victoria Green

No longer buy:

Frank's Red Hot
Crystal
and a bunch of others
