Hot or not, hot sauce version x Old Enough mash up:

Southeast Asian children from ages 5 to 7 try different American hot sauces and say if they’re hot or not.

Spoiler: it’s all Not Hot at all.

I remember the first time I had Tabasco as a 5 year old. “Is this.. hot??”

And my lifelong dislike of vinegar-dominant hot sauce began.

@skinnylatte I was going to say you're missing out, but really none of the great vinegar-based recipes I've had would fall under "hot" sauces - they're barbeque. But I do love the combo of Tabasco and salt. 🤷

@thom I’m starting to come around to using them in the right moment, like with New Orleans food.

But generally not what I’d reach for in the majority of the food I eat. Mexican hot sauces (like El Yucateco XXXL Hot) are more my thing for hot sauces from this side of the world.
