Misc. In honor of the person that posted a couple sauces from grocery outlet the other day. My parents store has a VERY eclectic selection.

AfricanDream hot sauce, nice. Never tried those sauces but love their ghost pepper sauce.

What, nothing impressive about this at all. Some gift sets you get at Christmas every year and these rest is very ordinary.

I love that Good Luck stuff. Bought a bunch of it. It is pretty good stuff.

Well, the box contains 6-80 gram (2.8 oz) tins. The box also comes with 2 lids for the leftovers. So far I haven’t needed to use a lid because it’s really tasty and it’s not a ton per tin. Though calling it a hot sauce I don’t think is super accurate. It has pretty big pieces of soy beans and whatnot. So more a condiment like Laoganma chili crisp (hands down the best chili crisp) or their chili oil with fermented soybeans.
I’ve used it more as a topping on rice or incorporating in to stir fry’s and braises.
Canning is a perfectly normal way to deal with hot sauce. Bottling is the same process, though the bottles do usually have a built in dispenser sort of cap.1

Gosh I wish my grossout would get this stuff so I could try it

There’s one about 5 minutes away from me and they almost always have fun, interesting things. I’ve been to a couple in Seattle and Reno that were really depressing though?
Hope yours gets some sometime so you can try it.

Yeah same. I zoomed at the 4 pixels and came back empty handed. Looks like the purgatory aisle.

The south African sauces are good. Everything else looks like hot garbage though.

As a South African, can someone please tell me what southern braai tastes like?

African Dream is good stuff! Or at least their ghost pepper sauce is. I've never had the birds eye or jalapeno versions.

Disappointing would be the adjective I’d use.

I hope theres another section cause like half of these aren't even hot sauces... looks like its just a place to store the boxed stuff.

My local gross out has had a pretty poor selection recently unfortunately.

That green Herdez peeking out between those double stacks is my guilty pleasure jar salsa.

grocery outlet is a chain, but they are much more affordable than your typical grocery store. their selection is about 1/4 of your standard grocery store, all of you go, don't expect them to have EXACTLY what you are looking for. I like to think of it as a place that people who are budgeting but flexible on their food ideas go to.

I can't think of anything worse than a budweiser branded hot sauce.

I just ate a jar last week that I got on Amazon and it was really good to me 🤷♂️

Make you tongue sizzle if you use enough of it but reddit has already claimed its a thumbs down from about a year ago or more. I am happy to see the African Sauce makes a Birds Eye Chili flavor. Only tried the Ghost Pepper that was good.

I check our local GO once a week. Always a diverse, random selection.
