I bought this sauce because it's super hyped on reddit. Honestly I'm not that impressed. It's a fine basic habanero sauce; I don't get any notes of carrot, onion or roasted anything. The flavor and heat is acceptable, I guess I just don't really get why everyone loves it so much. The bottle cap is also pretty annoying, you have to kind of shake it and not much comes out at a time. The price point is solid at least relative to the other sauces on here (which are more unique; you could probably find a basic habanero sauce like this one at the grocery store for a few bucks cheaper, to be honest). I'll finish my bottle for sure, but I won't be reordering this one.

I go through probably 12 bottles of this a year haha. It's so good. It's great straight up but I also like adding some to mayo to use on sandwiches. Whenever I'm cooking and the dish is lacking a little something, adding a little of this can help save it. Lots of flavor and the perfect level of heat for a mild sauce.

What can I say about this sauce that hasn't already been said? I tend to be skeptical about popular items (which is how I ended up missing out on Harry Potter until I was an adult and still didn't learn my lesson), so I had to have my arm twisted, but it's fantastic zesty flavor with enough heat for everyday use. It's Habanero, but the tomatoes flesh it out to create a wider, smokier heat. "Dump on everything" indeed.

I am not sure if mass market is the right term, but it is available at a local grocery store, so to me it is. Universally loved by all that try it. It is something I could put on about everything.

Modestly priced for what is arguably one of the best hot sauces in my collection. I've tried it on just about everything and it never disappoints. If you're sleeping on this one don't wait any longer and pick it up.

The heat level was great, but it smelled weird, it tasted like nothing, not tomato, not anything, so I'm thinking I might have gotten a bad bottle, oh well.

I ate this on fried chicken. Liked it a lot. Since I’m about to start keto as my New Years resolution (diabetic), I decided to try it out on a pretty easy recipe: baked avocado egg. I baked the avocado with some flavor god seasoning and added this sauce on it...and I loved it! I’m even more so looking forward to my keto diet and eating this with everything!
