I have to have hot sauce on almost everything too. It's usually Tabasco.

I occasionally make a soup from whatever I've frozen...left overs. Sausage, beef, chicken...vegetables of many types...base it in chicken or beef broth. It usually comes out really good (use garlic, onion various peppers to taste). the only problem is that if you get an exceptionally good batch...you can never repeat it.

Is it pure (peppers, vinegar and salt), or does it have crap (gar gum,
coloring, stabilizers, natrual flavoring (MSG), etc...) in it?

"Ingredients: chipotle pepper, distilled vinegar, water, salt, sugar, onion powder, garlic powder, spices, natural flavor, TABASCO Brand Pepper Pulp (distilled vinegar, red pepper, salt." Nothing I can't pronounce.

SUGAR! Why on earth would they put sugar in hot sauce?

Natural flavors (usually MSG), that leaves me out. I don't do
neurotoxins.

It would be odd, sugar kills the burn of most peppers. it's the one way to help. Most of us snatch up a glass of water and wash the pepper oil around our mouths, spreading the burn. A little sugar will kill it.

One of my kids was alergic to msg so i've avoided it for years, and now my wife is diabetic, so, no sugar. Salt and spices (various peppers, onion, garlic, all get a workout.) My wife is bed fast, so i do the cooking here. I have always enjoyed that, it's the clean up i hate!

Well, thanks to the current administration, natrual flavor/s can
mean almost anything, including, and most likely a glutimate.
Such as autolized protein from an animal or vegatable source
(usually yeast). MSG has been around for years and was used
by the Chinese (made from sea kelp) centuries ago.

When it was first introduced into the US, one of it's first uses
was to make lab mice fat for obesity studys where portly mice
were of benefit. The big food corporations jumped on it and had it
classified as a flavor enhancer after it was found out that it made
people keep eating more after they were full.

Some people, myself included, have bad reactions to it. It makes my ears
ring so bad that I have trouble getting any sleep. it gives my wife and 5
year old daughter splitting headaches.

How do I know this? In my youth I studied to become a food
additive chemist for a few years. It's very surprising what the big
food machine is allowed to put in the unsuspecting public's food.

Check out the latest neurotoxin, Splenda. it is a chlorinated hydrocarbon
very similar to hornet spray. Mammals should not ingest chloronated
hydrocarbons. Humans are mammals.

In the end, it's all about the money.

Is all this is making you hungry yet.

Later, I'm out.

That's ok so long as you don't exceed the number of rodent hairs the FDA allows in food. Rolling Eyes

Well thank God CW did not become a Rocket Scientist... We would all be learning about Propulsion using Hydrogen tonight...

Sometimes I am glad I don't know what might kill me...

BTW... I have to agree with you CW... I was going to comment on the whole "Natural Flavors" code for MSG's... It does the same crap to Kristen that it does to your wifey...

Did you vacuum tonight? Wink

I did... But I had a good excuse...

We installed double hinges on doors so she could get her power chair down the hall and arround into some of the rooms Also some grab handles in the bathrooms.
