Same brand, but as I recall it was red colored, in a bottle like Louisiana hot sauce (but a more slender bottle). I'm sure it's still available, I just haven't seen it in my local stores.

Cholula for breakfast foods.
Everything else, Crystal or Louisiana.

This.

Cholula, Crystal, Louisiana, Tapato, Valentina - all better than Tabasco

Tabasco habanero is excellent.

Marie Sharpes is the best mass produced sauce by far though.

Regular tobasco goes well with anything that has roux in my opinion. Gumbo, stew, and etouffee are perfect for tobasco. Outside of that i usually use different hot sauces, but still not cholula.

The flavored tobascos are real good for certain things too. Tobasco Mango Habenro pairs well with pork
Tobasco jalapeno/green pepper pairs well with sides like corn, mac-n-cheese, and other veggies
Tobasco scorpion is pretty good, a lot hotter and a lot less vinegar than the regular.

infinite upvotes

Tabasco was pretty good at disguising the taste of MREs

You’re right about original Tabasco, but they make some good flavors. Their cayenne garlic and habanero flavors are two of my favorite hot sauces ever. Maybe it’s the Tabasco peppers .

If Crystal isn’t available then I’ll just do without.
