In 2021 it is. They got to this place without marketing and by entering an already packed condiment market. Tabasco sauce had already been around for a century before they even started.
- thereare5lights 5y ago>Tabasco sauce had already been around for a century before they even started. Tabasco and Sriracha are about as similar are ketchup and mustard.
- boomboomsubban 5y agoI'd consider them like mustard and brown mustard, some broad differences but ultimately both versions of the same concept.
- thereare5lights 5y agoTheir concepts are not the same.
- boomboomsubban 5y agoAt most, they use a different pepper as a their main ingredient. That's the same concept, broadly speaking "hot sauce."
- thereare5lights 5y agoLike I said, this is like saying ketchup and mustard are the same. I'm sorry if you can't appreciate the difference between the two but saying that the main thing different between them is the pepper is ludicrous as is saying they're meant for the same kinds of culinary use.
- boomboomsubban 5y agoA quick search shows that every ingredient in Tabasco is in Sriracha, with Sriracha also having sugar, garlic, and some preservatives. I don't care for either, having eaten far too much spicy food to taste anything but vinegar in either, but acting like there's a world of difference between them is just silly. If at any point you wanted hot sauce, either one would do despite your preferences.
- thereare5lights 5y agoComparing foods and saying they’re the same thing if they’re made from the same ingredients only proves my point that you don’t know what you’re talking about.
- boomboomsubban 5y agoRight, your point that two hot sauces aren't similar, because they just aren't. Me pointing out their heavy similarities really drives home how un-similar they really are. That's just silly.
- thereare5lights 5y agoLol, if your mouth cannot detect the difference in consistency, taste, texture, etc, then you are not qualified to speak on their differences. Trying to put liquid tabasco in pho would be beyond disgusting. But you go on and think that they're interchangeable.
- boomboomsubban 5y agoYour complaint is that you think putting liquid into soup would make it disgusting? I did not expect that. And similar does not mean identical, I'm fully aware there are differences.
