All different peppers and other ingredients, all different heat. It's a world of difference. World of difference.
Most food critics will always say how they appreciate the "heat" of a specific dish.
Myself, I am fine without the heat. I don't know if it is because I smoked for 50 years or what, but all it does it burn my tongue so that i can't taste the food. My family on the other hand loves hot sauce, the hotter, the better, and when I visit them, everything tastes like Mexican food cause of all the hot, spicy shit.....
You are a true foodie, Sally, when you speak of different heats. I cannot tell one from the other. Every Christmas, the family gets a box of hot sauces as one of their gifts.....I buy the type that has the warning signs on them, e.g., skull and crossbones, etc......caution....will eat concrete.......
