Special Announcement

- SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT -

Dearest visitor(s):

After 7 years of this blog, I have decided to launch a video accompaniment series for the reviews.  It will launch October 1, 2019. The series is called F.O.H., which stands for Fundamentals Of Heat.  Installments are available at this link: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCuKBYOZxZi6Cne-UWwy-gqA/

I’ve been wanting to change it up a bit for some time and rather than add more still photos of me or the product solo or the product on various foods, ala Scott Roberts, I decided instead to do some support videos for the various sauces. It will take me a bit to get caught up with a backload of 160+ sauces and I will obviously not be doing all of them. All of the newer ones will be get both a written review and video accompaniment going forward, however. As with the blog itself, there will be no set posting schedule for the videos, though it looks like temporarily, for at least the rest of 2019, it will be new content every Sunday.

You can expect to see nifty stuff like a live look at the sauces as well as further discussion. I will also be consuming the various products both straight and as an accent to various foods. My testing sometimes covers several foods and not all of the foods I used to test the sauces will show up, but at least one representative food will. Additionally, I will be doing content that would not normally be on the blog, such as potentially trying all of the hot sauces of various restaurant chains or all of the spicy stuff on a given menu or something along those lines, possibly spicy snacks also.

Because YouTube is notoriously crappy about notifying subscribers of new content and because I will likely have some people following here but not there and vice versa, I have decided to go to a labeling system for the sauces that have additional video content. There will be an addition sign (+) in brackets in front of the respective sauce name and, also in brackets, the slogan “Video Available” behind the sauce name. The links for the respective video content will be on the page of the sauces themselves. Hopefully this will make things easy.

As always, I’m open to suggestions as to what you may want to see, if there is a way to notify everyone of new video content (aside from Twitter, Facebook, etc., which I’m not doing at present or in the foreseeable future) or any sauces you would like to see, assuming those sauces follow the prohibitions on onions and any extract use.

It is important to note the written sauce reviews are going nowhere. Those will also be posted in advance of any support video. While the video series will also feature some non-sauce content, the blog will remain solely as a repository for written reviews and solely about sauces.

Looking forward to a new chapter here and I hope you all enjoy.
