    Looks like every store’s selection near me. Amazon is my friend.

    Maybe there’s an endcap with a good selection?.. I see that this is not Publix but they usually do an end cap with lots of stuff

  3. ozzalot

    Yea….this is what it’s like at Safeway around East Bay CA. I like that they got the tried and true Crystal or Tabasco

    The condiments section never has the good stuff.

    Every grocery has a specialty food section. Asian sauces and Spanish sauces are there usually. At least at our grocery store, thats where all the “better” hot sauces are located.

    That’s why I go to Asian supermarkets & Mexican supermarkets. They have THE BEST selection.

    Being a Food Lion (founded in North Carolina), you just know they would have a ton of Texas Pete.

    Food lion. This is South Carolina….a loootttt of BBQ sauce.

    Grab some Chipotle Tabasco and Garlic Cholula.

    Yes, this is a sad collection but there are meals that a few of these hit pretty good on. Tabasco is a decent add to spice up chili or soups. I don’t mind the scorpion or green jalapeño on a Chipotle bowl. Cholula had always been a favorite of mine for an omelette. There is a Malinda’s in there but I can’t say I’ve ever had that particular one. Most are decent though. Finally I like Tiger Sauce on Asian leftovers it’s certainly not a hot sauce but it does have a weird, sweet flavor that I enjoy. If you have a local restaurant that has a killer sauce, ask if they will bottle it and sell it to you. I just bought a couple Jamaican Jerk Hot Sauces bottles from a place close by. It’s amazing, at first it tastes like a sweet chimichurri but then lights you up. He put it in those plastic squeeze bottles and charged me $10!a bottle. I feel like I won the lottery. So good!

    This is a lot better than what I have in town. Have to drive an hour to a special mall where they got the reeeeal goods.

    Wow, I checked on it while writing this comment and it’s permanently closed. RIP

    Food Lion is okay. Publix and Lowe’s Foods have decent choices in the international aisles.

    Yeah most grocery stores have like 5 shelves of ketchup, then 3 shelves of Franks, and if you are lucky some Cholula or Tabasco in maybe some other flavors besides their habanero. It’s not that good. I get my groceries from TJ’s or Aldi, meaning their collections are all their generic versions, so I’m forced to order from Amazon or the online stores for my collection, unless we are talking about re-filling my Tabascos and Cholula’s or Crystal. And Amazon is way overpriced.

    I’m in downtown New Orleans so thankfully my spot has Tabasco scorpion which I drink like water now.

  15. BetterOFFdead007

    God damn. At least Crystal blue.

  16. marcuslattimore21

    Firehouse Subs is best place to go here🤣

  17. Flimsy-Stock2977

    I wish we had those Texas pete buffalos over here

  18. VaBeachOrganix

    Crystals is solid and melinda’s recent in a pinch

  19. ThomasKG25

    It’s not that bad if you’re not picky.

  20. VaBeachOrganix

    at least Food Lion has decent root beer selection….

  21. Baddog789

    Internet orders are the way to go for a lot of us.

    Find a farmers market near you and support local

  23. RealSpliffit

    Get a bottle of Dave’s Insanity sauce (on Amazon or wherever) and buy whatever grocery store sauce looks the best based on ingredients you like and don’t even consider the heat level. Put a few drops of the insanity sauce in the grocery store sauce and I bet you will have a good daily driver.

  24. budgiesmugglez

    Are you around any hardware stores with lots of BBQ supplies? They can have some interesting options.

  25. glimblade

    I would LOVE a selection like that here in Cambodia… Lol

  26. I go Tabasco classic in this situation and the Crystal it’s on sale

  27. JOEYisROCKhard

    That sideways bottle of Sweet-Baby-Rays-Garlic-Parm in the wrong spot is making my grocery eye twitch.

  28. Scifig23

    Definitely grab a Melinda’s, then a couple classics mix them up with a little honey

  29. arrrValue

    Every major grocery store down here. No one has any vision.

  30. Bubsy7979

    Who the hell is buying Hooters wing sauce in a peanut butter container?!

  31. MoosesMom7

    Bro, I moved to canada and there’s *nothing*

  32. OzOnEarth

    Well, at least they got the top shelf right .

  33. one_zerozero

    Several big chain grocers near me started selling a local’s hot sauce brand and it’s the best thing ever.
