Spice World: Tabasco Is Going Sweet


What It Is: There are some very cool gifting ‘subcultures’ out there – one of them being the vast amount of people there that love ‘collecting’ things. Sometimes it’s wine, sometimes it’s frog-shaped decor, other times it’s food – like those who love hot sauce. While there are plenty of specialty hot sauce makers on the market, there’s a reason why Tabasco has been an enduring favourite. Available at grocery stores nationwide, this long-perfected recipe is continually being tweaked to explore other yummy flavours. The latest from Tabasco is their SWEET & Spicy variety, which packs a perfect blend of sweet heat into every bite. After embarking on a nationwide ‘Big Flavour’ tour, the brand has released this latest soon-to-be favourite flavour in grocery stores across Canada. Nab it to spice up your next meal as a host gift, or pick it up for a stocking stuffer for that spice-loving maniac in your life. Not a fan of sweet spice? This is just one of seven flavours offered by Tabasco these days!

Who It’s For: The hosts, to spice up their lives (and dinner). Your spouse, to add to their sampling collection of hot sauces. Yourself, because really – everyone should want to try this!

What It Costs: $12.99 for a 350 ml bottle, $6.79 for 142 ml.

Where It’s At: Grocery stores across Canada.

As I mentioned above, the Tabasco family of hot pepper sauces now extends to seven different flavours – from smokey chipotle to tongue-stinging habanero. Want to try all of them? I’m giving away two sampler packs of all seven Tabasco hot sauces! Here’s how to enter for your chance to win PLUS details on how you could win a trip to New Orleans!
