I have been collecting hot sauces since about 1992, it all started when 
someone gave us a case of Crazy Jerry's for a wedding present (I guess that 
should say something about my love for heat:  hmmm, I'll register for Lenox 
china and hot sauce?).  My pride and joy would be the bottle of Andy's Cajun 
Spitfire (Snapple bottle, Very Fine juice lid) and my bottle of Suzys (which 
had the same type of packaging at the time).  My collection got as high as 
about two hundred...I stopped collecting when my husband brought home a 
bottle of Colon Cleanser.

When the names started getting too disgusting, I had to stop.  But then 
again, I started making my own and had to start collecting batches.

I also have a friend who was a touring musician, we traded obscure sauces for 
awhile...

As far as peppers ruining the taste of everything?  Cigarettes ruin the taste 
of everything, peppers enlighten the flavor!  I've always said, if it weren't 
for heat, I would weigh nothing (since I can't eat without it!)

Be well, all,
