Secret Aardvark is my current favorite hot sauce. It's Portland-based, too!
Secret Aardvark is excellent. Very tomato-y, but super flavorful with just the right amount of heat. Also give Yellowbird a try. Very good, but different.
Just visited Portland a couple weeks ago and was recommended it - so good! Bought a bottle to bring home with me.
Why do I need this now?
For those of you who are unable to locate this wonderful sauce in your local grocery store. Fear not. Lowes Hardware stores seems to have them in their grilling sections throughout the country. Such a wonderful sauce. very flavorful, perfect amount of heat, goes on literally everything. Cheers!
Why does it being from Portland matt- Oh, I know why, LOL
Sriracha sauce on scrambled eggs with cheese. YUM 😋
I love Padd Thai! I can't wait for that episode!
I love different hot sauces and spicy salsas. Spicy foods are something I really enjoy. Although I don't like it extremely hot, like melting metal hot. It has to have flavor and not just nuclear hot.
Love the shirt, Quagmire. Giggity, giggity.
I think we have eight or nine different hot sauces in the fridge right now, including Tabasco and Cholula. I'm currently out of Sriracha. Need to get to the store!
I like almost every hot sauce and salsa I've ever tried... except for Sriracha. I don't know what exactly makes it different, but about an hour after eating it, I end up rolling around in pain for hours. It's like I have a duodenal allergy or something.
@@ToyKeeper I'm sorry for you. I love it!
@@jovanweismiller7114 I have no idea why it happens. Sriracha-flavored foods don't do it, other hot sauces don't do it (even much hotter ones), salsas, peppers, etc. It's just the bottled Sriracha.
So Cholula is what I normally slather all over everything... especially the chipotle flavor or the green flavor. It's so mild though, it's really more of a flavoring than a hot sauce.
Hot sauces don't need refrigeration, do they?
You should try El yucateco and Valentina🇲🇽
watching this while eating macaroni and cheese spiked with siracha
Sriracha
YES!!!! I spike mine with Cholula!!
Watching this with Valentina hot sauce and chicken bog
Delicious
Found Marie Sharp 's in Belize several years ago. Great that it now widely available here.
Man, I tried some ghost pepper chips last night and darn near felt high after the blind panic subsided. 🔥🥵🔥
those were likely the endorphins that are released when having that hot sensation
Those are great, but you have to learn to eat them one at a time, because they come on slowly and you do NOT want them to accumulate. Also, you have to be careful biting into them, because the powder's a little loose and you really, really do not want it in your eyes.
I’m apple fed by how he pronounces capsaicin
The town of Sri-racha is not in South-East Thailand. The region is known as Eastern Thailand. There are 3 original brands of sriracha sauces still in production today.
Also Nam-prik literally translates to chilli-water or chilli sauce, and is similar meaning to the indonesian word sambal. There are many different kinds but all have chilli in them.
sriracha is pretty much the dollar store ketchup of hot sauce. more power to them for selling trash to fanbois. Chinese hot sauces...smoked or deep fried peppers...fermented stuff..that's where its at
5:32 "It became a way to add flavor to tasteless [sh*t] food."
I listened to this 3 times and I'm convinced he's referencing caca flavored rancid meat, not boats.
Also, I agree completely. If food dishes were like different pieces of music, spicy food would be jamming a needle in your ear.
What about harissa ? North of Africa hot sauce ?
Love Pad Thai! I go to a great Thai restaurant near my house too often!! I need to be able to cook it from scratch myself. Following this to find out more
6:53 plate of soup?! The past was chaos.
Hot sauce is a food group.
You will not find any Tapatio in any Mexican household, as it is American, El Yucateco is 100% Mexican along with Del Amor and Valentina.
Valentina extra hot for me, please!
Well done, I prefer the super hot sauce. Yes start slow and build up your tolerance. I have been eating spicy food since 1983.
I love Huy Fong Sriracha but unfortunately in Europe they've banned the use of one of the preservatives that goes into it, so it's disappeared from our shops. I have to make do with Bang Bang Sriracha, which is ok but no Huy Fong.
I love Dave's Insanity Sauce! 😋
Wait, a plate of soup?????
My friend makes his own I’m going to try
I misheard "tasteless ship food" as "tasteless shit food."
Editing the video, I heard it this way the first 5 times.
Same 😅
@@MentalFloss 🤣
I don't think there's a difference
I love Huy Fong foods Garlic Chili Paste.
alternative history where fugu fish neurotoxin is considered spicy while chili peppers are lethal.
#FTLOHS!!! We're Here!
If you ever get to Cincinnati, ask about Jungle Jim's international market where you will find the great wall of hot sauce.
How to put out the fire?
No dairy for me.
I use bananas.
Chalulu deserves to be #1 that shit is delicious
I don't mess with any of that crazy spice stuff.
I saw a guy throw themselves out a second story window to make the pain stop.
Somehow it did give him relief.
Caliente!
That shirt is too hot to handle, Justin! 🥵
Ty Europeans for bringing peppers to the world
5:34 OoOooo, SHIP food. Thought you said something else...
Being Indonesian im always up for all kinds of spicy 🌶🌶🌶🌶
Great episode!
Yogurt is the best heat calming product, milk second. Its why india has raita
Scoville looks like he got a mouthful of hot sauce, but didn't know what to do with it: swallow or spit.
How did the Asians get hot sauce then? and i'm Mexican, tortilla being of indigenous origin is a tall tale, tortillas started in Northern Mexico, so did tacos and quesadillas, you won't find a taco stand in Southern Mexico.
chilis as a cure for stomach aches? Rather the cause :D
When I was pregnant, bell peppers soothed my heartburn, and were one of very few foods that didn’t give me some to begin with. It’s been 17 years, and I still have a tendency to at least try some pepper when my tummy’s unhappy.
soothing tone
"plate of soup" - wtf? who eats soup off a plate? that's seems odd
I agree. Soup is a dish that you eat from a bowl.
It's not just humans who can learn to tolerate peppers. I have a dog whose loves to steal my food from the plate when I don't watch over it. When I got covid I abused on pepper sauce because of anosmia.
One day I found him licking my plate after I was done with it and making a horrible expression. But after a few weeks the bastard start not only eating ultra spicy food but also preferring it then not spicy food.
LOL at the (I'm reading it as loving?) use of "the bastard" and the image of the dog going to town on some hot wings.
@@MentalFloss Wouldn't the chicken bones be dangerous for dogs?
🌶hot topic🌶
In the Western worlds,, most of us know "hot sauce" as Tabasco; bitter and dank It took me a long time to graduate to Louisiana Christal, Texas Pete's Chilula. Somehow, the entire idea of spice never go to New Jersey. Generally food here is fast, cheap and flavorless
Capsaisin is the best way to deal with back pain.
Just don't use it right after a shower!
Tabasco... Made ON AVERY ISLAND.
Cool video. Should check out the role of the PuckerButt pepper company in contemporary chile history.
cool to see also normal people having a panik attack from that stuff.
10 different hot sauces in my fridge 🙂
The most surprising information here is how to pronounce capsaicin…
The other pronunciation is totally acceptable, but when we saw an expert in the field use that pronunciation we figured we'd go with it!
Cool wallpaper! And I’d say there is a difference between hot sauce rated for its heat and spicy sauce rated for its flavor. I personally don’t see the appeal of consuming hot chilies just to consume hot chiles, but that’s me! 🤣
Hot chilis have a municipal purpose, they're very hot but they're very flavorful, they're wonderful for your respiratory system, and your digestive system! Google it you'll be surprised what they do for you!
That last part hit different. Had my first ulcer today doctor says it’s from the hot sauce but I hope it’s not because I can’t remember a day without hot sauce lol
Chicken is a type of birds/dinosaurs. Can someone please try to grow chili from the chili seeds that have been through the digestive system of a chicken. May be it is also a good idea to feed your chicken with grains first and then use their poo as seeds. Since birds won't destroy the seed that they have ate, then there should be no seed eating birds/dinosaurs in the world. Both birds/dinosaurs and mammals can be seed dispersers or seed consumers.
maybe after pad thai a history of macaroni and cheese?
kap-say-sn
🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽
I had heard that animal based fat was the key to neutralizing the heat. I suppose a test using ghee verses heavy cream or skim milk could ascertain what works.
No animal fat or dairy for this vegan.
I use bananas. They work really well.
Dude I love hot sauces and peppers
Or deep fraing.
Do Vegemite!
Hahah oo interesting one. Are you from down under, by any chance?
@@MentalFloss sure am
You forgot the most common used hot sauce bottle, Valentina. 🧐
MMMMMMMM
The most shocking fact in this video to me is that Tabasco is not in the top 3 of hot sauces in the US. I see that stuff everywhere but I have to agree that the other ones mentioned in the video are better. it is too vinegary for me.
He is basing it off insta cart sales. So it's flawed
This video supposedly on the history of hot sauces focuses almost entirely on asian and colonial history when it should focus on Indigenous history, you know, the people who domesticated chilli peppers and creators of hot sauces. Also, they're Mexica, not "Aztec" Please do better Mental Floss.
I'm a bit disappointed as well. :( Mexico alone has numerous variations on hot sauces (salsa macha being my favorite and apparently unknown to most of the US!). I can only imagine that there other amazing salsas south of Mexico that I have yet to try. :)
It's only a 10 minute video... Maybe they'll do a part II though
Not a fan of Pad Thai. Been to Thailand on many occasions, and I prefer Pahd See Ew.
Cry Baby Craig's is my favorite hot sauce, and it's local here in Minnesota.
Pickled habañero and garlic 🙏 always have a bottle in my fridge!
we still eat salsa on tortillas like that
Especially handmade tortillas fresh off the comal with a fresh salsa. Omg it's one of the most divine things to exist!
Great job! Pssst, you need a better shirt, or at least iron the collar 😉
First
Do lard and fat.
Oo yes! We had "fat" as a topic a long time ago (olive oil, lard, butter) but then forgot about it. Adding it back to the list!
I miss Hank Green! His jokes were just so natural and funny. This person's feet seem too small to fit Hank's shoes.
I don’t think Hank ever did Mental Floss, did he?
@@grumblefkitty One of the Green brothers did.
@@someguy2135 yah, that would be John.
@@grumblefkitty Right. Thanks.
lol "peeri peeri" its perry like cherry
Ship food 😂
The best way to keep your mouth from burning is not to breathe through it! Just Like Oxygen makes a fire burn, it also makes your mouth burn, when you start eating peppers just open your mouth long enough to stuff another pepper in it! And that's how you do that!
Alaskan Bullwhip is the best hot sauce
Crazy stuff. Using Bullkelp to make so many kinds of foods! Pickles, hot sauces, etc.
Ironically, tabasco is the least tasty hot sauce I've tasted.
I agree. I was surprised to hear it was fermented.
On the other hand, the fermented Korean gochugong sauce is fantastic!
rip off @tastinghistory
Second
Ketchup >
Sriracha is gross 🤢🤢
It is now. Ever since he lost his jalapeño supplier .
