    According to the Tabasco company, Tabasco was first produced by Edmund McIlhenny in 1868, but there's more to it than that. The story actually begins in the pre-Civil War era with a New Orleans plantation owner named Maunsel White, who was famous for the food served at his sumptuous dinner parties. He drew inspiration from European, Caribbean, and Cajun sources. But one of his favorite sauces was of his own devising, made from the Tabasco chili. White added it to various dishes and bottled it for his guests. Although the McIlhennys have tried to dismiss the possibility, it seems clear now that in 1849, a full two decades before Edmund McIlhenny professed to discover the Tabasco pepper, White was already growing Tabasco chilies on his plantation.
    Interesting fact: Tabasco is one of the few US companies to be granted a Royal Warrant that certified it as a supplier to the British monarch by Elizabeth II in 2009. Elizabeth II's love of Tabasco was thanks to her mother, who during WWII sent her staff to scourge London for it!

You can buy a packet of Tabasco seeds for a dollar or two, and then grow your own plants. You can also ferment at home if you want to. I still love store bought hot sauce, but nothing compares to the feeling of making your own hot sauce.

    Tabasco peppers are from the Mexican state of Tabasco, a state just west of the Yucatan Peninsula! My go-to hot sauce is Valentina from Guadalajara, but I still appreciate the crew at Avery Island that makes their iconic product possible! Not to mention the fact Avery Island is named Avery just like me 😂. Fun fact, Avery Island is a SALT DOME! There are plenty of salt domes in Louisiana, as there are massive salt deposits along the Texas and Louisiana coastline. Salt domes are formed due to a phenomenon called diapirism, which is when lighter materials force their way up through denser ones. In this case, a mound of salt has intruded upwards into overlying sediments.

      It’s not formulated to be used as a typical sauce, but as a flavour additive. When I realized that, it changed my culinary style. At least for the original sauce, it’s not meant to be the primary flavour, but a culinary enhancer. Start with a couple drops on every day items and increase or maintain until you find what works best. The top restaurants of the world don’t carry it B/c it changes flavour, but because it slightly enhances if used sparingly

      We lived for thousands upon thousands of years without electricity, in climates where you can't have a cellar filled with ice, so people had to use fermentation and curing to preserve food so it won't spoil. This is just applying old knowledge in new ways, but we've been using fermentation for forever basically. It's the same thing that gives us alcohol, and there's records of the ancient egyptians from like 3000bc drinking beer.

    In my opinion, this is the way that all things American should be made (and probably were made once upon a time). Right from the effort made by the company President himself in selecting the peppers to the usage of wooden barrels, glass bottles(not plastic) and minimal yet functional, old school labelling for bottling up the sauce. I'm really impressed.

    If you have never tried Tabasco chipotle sauce, you are missing out. It is incredible. It's not crazy spicy. It's just the perfect blend of smokiness, peppers, and salt. For just a couple bucks you have to try it. I know I sound like a salesman for the company but I'm not. It is crazy how good it is. It is much milder than the original tabasco sauce but packs a truckload of flavor. You have to try it. One taste and you will be thanking me for the rest of your life!

      This world is rapidly passing away and I hope that you repent and take time to change before all out disaster occurs! Belief in messiah alone is not enough to grant you salvation - Matthew 7:21-23, John 3:3, John 3:36 (ESV is the best translation for John 3:36) if you believed in Messiah you would be following His commands as best as you could. If you are not a follower of Messiah I would highly recommend becoming one. Call on the name of Jesus and pray for Him to intervene in your life - Revelation 3:20.
      Contemplate how the Roman Empire fulfilled the role of the beast from the sea in Revelation 13 over the course of 1260+ years. Revelation 17 confirms that the beast is in fact Rome. From this we can conclude that A) Jesus is the Son of God and can predict the future or make it happen, B) The world leaders/nations/governments etc have been conspiring together for the last 3000+ years going back to Babylon and before, C) History as we know it is fake. You don't really need to speculate once you start a relationship with God.
      Can't get a response from God? Fasting can help increase your perception and prayer can help initiate events. God will ignore you if your prayer does not align with His purpose (James 4:3) or if you are approaching Him when "unclean" (Isaiah 1:15, Isaiah 59:2, Micah 3:4). Stop eating food sacrificed to idols (McDonald's, Wendy's etc) stop glorifying yourself on social media or making other images of yourself (Second Commandment), stop gossiping about other people, stop watching obscene content etc. Have a blessed day!

We went as a field trip when I was in elementary about 15 years ago…I’ll never forget it. They gave us tiny bottles as souvenirs, and my dumb ass wanted to taste it on the bus ride home (because I hadn’t tried the green bottle before). I learned about vacuum pressure that day, cuz when I sucked on the bottle it shot hot sauce right into my eye. Valuable lesson for a first grader.
