What You Should Know

You'd spot this bottle in the condiment or hot-sauce aisle (or pulled out at a backyard barbecue) — a smoky, garlicky, fruity heat meant to brighten tacos, wings, or scrambled eggs. The vibe is adventurous and bold, a gourmet-casual kick rather than homey nostalgia. While most ingredients are recognizable roasted peppers, garlic and fruit, the presence of xanthan gum and citric acid signals a formulated, shelf-stable product with texture stabilizers typical of industrially processed sauces.
