My hot sauce collection got two additions today when I found Costillo Salsa 
Habanera in orange and green at the dollar store. The website is 
http://www.salsacastillo.com, but it doesn't show my new additions. A quick count 
gave me 89 but some might be duplicates. Although I've always had a few bottles I 
really started collecting when Jim Campbell and I had our excellent adventure in 
Jamaica in 1997. (Seems like yesterday.) I brought about 20 varieties back from 
there and have added  to them ever since.

I pretty much concentrate on Habanero sauces these days but also receive the 
occasional gift. I probably have about 40 Habanero sauces including "Ralph's 
Righteous" from Jim Campell and Sonny Barger's Kickstartin Habanero Hellfire 
Sauce. Sonny used to be the president of the Hell's Angels Motorcycle Club but I 
think he retired to Arizona.

I also have a bunch of Asian sauces which I stir fry with including a couple of brands 
of Sambal Oelek. These are groceries rather than collectibles.

I'd mention my mustards, but that probably belongs on another group<G>.
