We did the Hot Ones Challenge and it was so much fun....except for Da Bomb. That sauce can go to HE:ice_hockey_stick::ice_hockey_stick:. The other 9 sauces go great on almost everything

Family tradition: Every June, during a vacation with 18 of us, we get the most recent season's lineup, and 3 generations try to make through the Apollo (using nuggets -- much easir fia huge crowd). Always a blast. Go through several bottles of the Classic and Los Calientes in our household every year, too. Burn on!

The sauces are awesome. I've only used them as a party trick thus far. I've personally done the 10-wing-challenge 3 times. It gets, uhm, less painful each time. Or maybe u cope better with it from one time to the next. When u use the sauces to "replicate" the show, it's a really fun partytrick. I've already had 3 people be proud of themselves for completing it. And some saying the next day was tougher than the challenge itself. I want to add that I am a chili freak, and ofc I feel some of the pain on esp #8 and 10, but I am fairly used to the burn. U are way better off just relaxing, and not trying to find a remedy (nothing really helps if it truely burns). Just take the heat, running all over the house won't help u - neither will yoghurt or other fatty means of "help". It burns. Ok? However, this is how I liked the sauces (in order): #1 Classic Hot Sauce - Really nice tasting sauce. Bit of vinegar, runny, but really nice taste. #2 Dawsons Hot Sauce - I'd describe this similar to #1. A bit runny, vinegar comes through, but nice taste. Some of my guests said they felt some heat here. #3 Calabria - easilly my favorite in terms of taste. Thick sauce. Nice tomato, fresh - just very good. U will start feeling some slight heat here. #4 Angry Goat Pepper - more along the lines of #1 and 2, only u feel the heat creeping slightly. #5 Los Calientes - super tasty sauce. More sweet, but also fresh. Easily #2 in terms of taste after #3. Heat is nice. #6 Queen Majesty Cocoa - probably the most surprising of all the sauces. I really liked it, but I'll understand anyone who doesn't. Very nice heat on this one. #7 13 Angry Scorpions - I'm gonna argue tastewise, it's not a million miles away from #1, 2 and 4. Same as #6 in terms of increase in heat. A small step-up. #8 Da Bomb - this is just a terrible sauce made for pain. I want to argue it hurts more than #9 and 10 despite SHU insuperiority. It is a quick actor and long laster. Instand pain, and it comes in waves. I want to argue that thos sauce tastes the worst - by FAR. But it is fun watching how people react to it. Almost as if they are trying to run from pain they know they are stuck with #9 Puckerbutt Pepper - I want to say this sauce is different from the rest in terms of taste. It isn't my favorite tastewise, not my least favorite either, I'll put this one in tje middle of the pack. In terms of heat, and if u use the sauces in order from 1 to 10, #9 won't bother u much after Da Bomb. U dead at this point xD #10 Apollo - taste: Great. Heat: Crazy. The weird thing is u can actually taste the flavors despite 2mln+ SHU. This, however, is the one sauce that reactivate #8 If u try this sauce just for fun without running the gauntlet - it's nearly like pouring acid on ur tongue. But if u "walk into it" - it is a very good sauce. Overall 9/10 from Norway for this box. Season 17 makes me want to buy season 18 - despite the insane price.

Exactly what I expected and then some. Only thing that could of made the experience better if Sean Evans the legend himself was there with the shows special wings. I love the show, I love the sauces. 10/10 hot sauce recommend. Best flavor was Los Calientes, a hot ones special. Da bomb was exactly as I expected, I respected the bottle straight out of the box and humbly was it’s loyal servant.
