UPDATE: Support video available here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1o3WnzR3MX8 I like to keep a fruit-based sauce or two around, but when I saw papaya in this one, after what turned out to be an ultimately unhappy experience with a prior product, I was a bit leery, but if there's one guy I trust to make a great sauce, it's CaJohn and so I went for it...and was instantly rewarded. Think of this as one of the best teriyaki sauces you've had in your life (in fact, I'm sorely tempted to go to a Hawaiian place and get some musubi to double-check myself) and you'll be about there. The label bills this sauce as the "hotter hot sauce", which makes about zero sense here as there is precious little heat to be had. Also of interest is that the ingredients mentions the word "chile" a couple times, but with no indication of which chile, very unusual for CaJohn's products, which usually are very specific in which pepper is burning you up at the time.
Bottom line: This is not, it should be noted, precisely a teriyaki sauce, but that is definitely the closest thing to it and I would keep a bottle of this around specifically for that purpose. Another very tasty entry from one of the reigning kings of the hot sauce world.
