I love hot sauce. Tabasco absolutely has its place, but I could never commit to it as a universal sauce. The ripeness of green chiles, the floral bouquet of habanero, or the contrast of a fruit/pepper blend all surpass the high vinegar content of Tabasco.

Right now I’m hooked on The Bronx green sauce. It’s not very hot, but I can’t get enough of the flavor. I highly recommend it if you like green sauces.

I started on vinegar based hot sauce as a kid, then grew to understand there's better stuff out there... But the vinegar based stuff is not as inherently bad as I thought now that I'm even older. It has definite cases where it's the best sauce for the job.

Same here. Yeah, I put it on fish on Christmas because that’s what we had growing up. I always need to replace it because it turned brown before I finished it.
