At Peppers of Key West, our free tasting bar uses nacho chips so folks can test the sauces. It’s not uncommon to find one of us in the back room digging into a bag of chips during a break or while trying to catch a peaceful moment before the next tasting crowd comes in. When we do that, we often grab a bottle of Cholula’s Hot Sauce and pour it right out of the bottle and onto the chips. It’s hot enough to let you know it’s a hot sauce, but not so hot that the tears are flowing readily. Grab yourself some Cholula’s and have your own dining out experience at home.
