    Turning plastic gloves into hot sauce is something that I've been wanting to do since I started this channel.

    Just a cautious FYI for anyone making their own hot sauce: I didn't see Nile add any vinegar at the end (although there was some in the peppers). Botulonium toxin grows in anerobic environments greater than 4.7pH, and is commonly detected when people improperly preserving things like chopped garlic in oil. I don't imagine this sauce would be particularly safe to consume after a couple of weeks unless refrigerated. Also, be sure to sterilise whatever bottle you use!

      Simply due to lack of free time, I started in the middle. I was compelled to NOT skip forward at all. At some point I went back to the beginning so I could see how the gloves played into it. Then I went right to the point near the end where I had left off.
