Interesting..I’m not a Rachel Rae fan. I’ll have to read all of the full reviews and the article. It is neat that they looked at several sauces from on line and gave great reviews to them. Reviews that have already been done by myself and other reviewers on hot sauce “blogs”.
Those reviews are a
joke… It would be interesting to see a list of who the paid advertisers are on the RR site…I’d like to see a “taste test” again on TTF.
Thanks TC! I didn’t have the guts to say that..they weren’t a true review to me..just a few sentences that was made up to descibe what they thought the sauces to be. The taste test should be redone by people who know hot sauce and can better describe and find uses for these sauces!
