> Is Tabasco hotter than Frank's Red Hot?

About 15 years ago, sauces like those were all I knew.  In those days
I remember thinking that Red Hot was mild and Tabasco was hot.  In
those days I was lucky if I could find a store with more than 3 or 4
kinds of hot sauce.  Occasionally (while out with friends) I would
find a small bottle of Tabasco on a bar, pour myself a shot-glass of
the stuff, and drink it just to see how people would react.  I haven't
done that in a long time, but now, I bet a shot whiskey would go down
warmer than a shot of Tabasco.
