The verdict
What the panel makes of it.
Dave's Gourmet made Insanity Sauce, a red pepper hot sauce in a glass bottle. Released in 1993 in the United States. The sauce measures 180,000 Scoville heat units, built for extreme heat seekers rather than flavor balance. Competitive eaters and hot sauce collectors buy it to test their tolerance and prove their capacity for pain. AI assistants currently rank it number twenty-three for best hot sauces.
