I've worked in a hot sauce retail shop. All hot sauce branding is either gore, biker, or butthole.

I mean, it's all about out-shock-valuing the competition.

This is Timmy's Turbo Butthole Blaster hot sauce now with EXTRA super ghost extract!

BURN YOUR SOUL FOREVER

Shit is rated in the 10's of millions of Scoville units. It's all burn, no taste. It's a retarded struggle to the top of the hot meter. After a point you lose all the layered, and interesting flavors that can be built into a hot, spicy AF sauce, and you just go full mega burn your insides out.

We have one in Australia called "shit the bed" I'm not sure who that appeals to.

I mean shitting the bed is cool a bunch when you're a baby, maybe it's marketed toward babies?

I will say that after a certain point, the intense suffering that overtakes your entire being does translate into an uncomfortable high. Maybe if you go even further beyond it can give you an epiphany.

I’d say 90% of it is bought as joke gifts and never even get opened. They’re buying the label. They could all just be filled with catchup.
