You're supposed to put a couple dabs of the last dab into a pot of chili. That's when it adds the right amount of flavor and heat. Eating it straight is what gets you.
Are you sure you aren't talking about Da Bomb? The Last Dab isn't that bad.
You must be mistaking Last Dab for something else. It’s really hot but it also tastes great. It’s one of those sauces that I can’t eat much of because of the heat but I’m constantly coming back to because the flavor is excellent.
Yup. I've tried so many of the different high end hot sauces. I love them. I tried this back in I think 2020. On one hand, glad I did it. It's a challenge. On the other hand, I don't think I would do it again.
But the chip they use now is supposed to be even hotter. Like at some point it really does become a health concern. Especially for people who aren't used to super hot foods. Even my brother, who can also keep up on the hot sauces, complained that it made his stomach hurt for a good hour.
The Taco Bell stomach is more likely food poisoning than anything remotely spicy.
Do you think Taco Bell is representative of actual Mexican food? Blaming Taco Bell isn't racist, its blaming shit tier food
Dude what the fuck are you smoking. You need to chill out 8 notches.
I do get hungry pretty fast after Chinese food, but I always felt it was because the food was so damn good I simply wanted more of it.
Wow. You are just full of terrible takes and mistakes in this thread…
I love seeing pictures that white people post of their food talking about how excited they are and it looks like there's not a flake of seasoning on that. I don't get how they live like that.
I had one of these chips too. It was really bad for like 10-15 minutes and then it was okay.
Also cholula slaps
Habanero tastes pretty great, but the heat is far too much for me. Like most people, I have to have it dialed down to enjoy the flavor.
Someone let me try their "Dumbass Hot Sauce" and it was very spicy, with a gross bitter taste to it. It's made for people to show off in front of others. It's not an enjoyable taste.
This seems like the latter kind of food. It's not spicy as a result of trying to make something that tastes great, it sounds like it was made to be spicy as a marketing gimmick. It sounds like that coffee with "death" in the name that I hear taste nasty. It has added caffeine. It's meant to have the highest amount of caffeine as a gimmick, not to taste good.
Some of us genuinely like that level of heat. My go to is Dave's Gourmet "insanity sauce" since it's incredibly hot, but also has a nice flavor.
Amen.
I actually quite like the flavor of the last dab, but it's not a sauce you can be generous with. Anything with extract in it I avoid.
I've honestly thrown away whole bottles because I forgot to check for extracts. Tastes terrible. If I'm gonna be eating something super hot, it better taste at least decent. Or just no taste because the heat overrides it.
Anything using extract also feels much hotter than the scoville level would suggest, and it always goes straight to the back of my throat. It's not even hot, it just hurts and tastes like shit. Extract is the worst, don't put OC spray in my hot sauce!
Same. I think the Last Dab has great flavor. All the Hot Ones sauces are actually really delicious, imo.
I've not had one from them that I dislike, and they tend to use good ingredients. As for the last dab, I already really like the flavor of the Carolina reaper, and the Apollo is just great for that. They do a generally good job with balancing their heat/flavor for their sauces, too.
My first guess was that he died of pneumonia from aspirating chip dust. The actual case sounds like something that seriously needs a warning. Young healthy people don't think of stomach ache as potentially lethal and the package should make clear that it is dangerous.
Yes. Proper labeling, not illegalization ffs.
I just had some Last Dab in my Mac n Cheese last night. It's fine, just very hot, but it tastes good. Sauces from that show that are actually just stupid hot are like, Da Bomb Beyond Insanity, Classic Pepper X Edition, and Taco Vibes Only. Those are made specifically to be too hot.
That last paragraph is why I don't like Tobasco. It's not flavorful. It's just heat and vinegar. Better as an assault deterrent than as food. Dave's has some good sauces, but the Insanity Sauce is not one of them, for the same reason.
*Tabasco
I don't like Tobasco either, but I feel like for the opposite reason. The flavor is the problem, while I love a similarly vinegary hot sauce like Louisiana which I'd say has less other flavor
Same, I don't like the taste of Tobasco. I like Valentina hot sauce. It's very mild, but I love the flavor. I usually use it to slather burritos or put in tacos. It also makes an ok hot wing sauce when mixed with butter.
Tabasco sauce tastes super sweet to me. Like pure sugar.
It's not good.
I don't understand how people see this as showing off, putting stuff in your mouth that you and your body don't want to be there. Like, why not eat a piece of shit and some stink bugs? Oh right because it's fucking stupid.
It's the same reason people do things like skydiving. Just cause you're not into it, doesn't mean it's stupid.
But doing it for internet points sure as fuck is
I can understand the thrill of skydiving, even though I've never done it and probably never will. And I can understand enjoying good hot food, because I do. But making something hot just for the sake of being hot, and daring people to eat it just to say they can seems pretty pointless.
Stupid me. That's right because skydiving causes nothing but pain.
Thank you because I definitely said they're the same.
