To have a love hate relationship with Jamaican hot pepper sauce?

[Awarethebear]

Tastes so good but I've been awoken three times during the night to burning explosive poos, is it worth it anymore?

Use less, I think.

I think YABU as you need to find a hot sauce you can tolerate.

What about Maggie Masala Chilli Sauce?

Stackem I will take your advice on board, I'll really miss the hot pepper sauce though.

I share your pain on this topic, literally! I love it but also I know it is a bad idea, I will never have it the day before a shift or an occasion.

I used to push through the pain but recently I've started 'cutting it' by mixing with yoghurt or cooking it with apple juice to make a sauce.

My DW thinks I'm weird to persevere, it's nice to know others have the same struggle :-)

YABVU to complain at all about Jamaican hot sauce - it is a thing of joy and wonder. I find it very hard to get hold of in Germany, have to beg people to post me it, and every drop is precious.

If you are experiencing any kick-back from its spicey powers, I suggest eating a little everyday. I find if I've gone through a withdrawal/ period without sauce then the first dose of sauce can result in indigestion and upset.

Which brand do you use? I use Encona although I'm convinced it's not as hot as it used to be. Their chili rating system seems off. Their Carolina Reaper sauce rates 4 chilis and it barely warrants more than 3 IMO.

Have it with breakfast instead of dinner and you won't need to poo in the night as much 👌

I have the same problem with Encona. Worth it imo
