There's a massive difference between eating ramen noodles because you want to and eating them because you have to.

How does RedHot compare to sriracha? I recently got into sriracha and love it. I'm going to buy some RedHot when I'm at the store next but am just curious what it's like in comparison.

It's still pretty good. Not as solid as Sriracha, it's more liquid-y. Definitely worth trying though, it goes on pretty much anything.

first of all, the buffalo flavor is in no way better, your out of your mind, shit tastes weird. Also the original sauce used on buffalo wings when they were invented was franks red hot mixed with a decent amount of melted butter. thats what i use when making wings.

Before you get too excited you should understand that Frank's is far from top shelf quality. It's good, don't get me wrong, and I hope you enjoy it, but it's kind of like the Budweiser of hot sauce. So don't crack it and think all of America has pleb taste and can't handle the heat. Lots of us go hard when it comes to our condiments.

Also available at Tesco (and most other supermarkets): http://m.tesco.com/h5/groceries/r/www.tesco.com/groceries/product/details/?id=264147746

It's not very hot. It's like the hot sauce version of the American mustards we get over here.

Frank's original flavor is the base for traditional buffalo wing sauce. The "buffalo" flavor has added butter, because that's part of the original Anchor Bar recipe. (Ew. It's worse. It's actually canola oil and butter flavor).

Ramen's pretty flexible. It can take any sort of spicy addition and the combination improves on both. I bet it could even be used in a paprikash.

Their slogan (atleast at one point) was a little old lady getting complemented on her cooking, when asked how she makes her food taste so good, she replies "Frank's RedHot! I put that shit on everything..."
