How much hot sauce do you guys use?

[crjorgensen]

I was just wondering how much hot sauce you guys use on a daily or weekly basis....I go through a big bottle of hot sauce per week and I put hot sauce on pretty much everything I eat (meat, veggies, sandwiches, even salads sometimes) and was just wondering how much hot sauce people use? Also, I hope I don't get flamed for this since this is a hypothetical question, but would anyone consider counting hot sauce in there macros if they used a bunch of it every day? I don't count hot sauce or mustard since it says 0 calories on the bottle per serving, but was just wondering if people actually do? Also, plan on eating some pork chops soon with lots of hot sauce

Hot sauce is 0 cals? :S

[bwelch1985]

I use a moderate amount of hotsauce....never counted it.

I use a f*ckton of mustard...always counted it. But that's just me...

If you're relatively consistent w/ your usage (depending on your goals obviously) I wouldn't worry about it one bit.

So far, it's been a bottle of Sriracha a month.

[crjorgensen]

Hot sauce is 0 cals? :S

I know it isn't 0 calories but in 1tsp of frank's red hot it says 0 calories on the bottle so there is no point in worrying about the calories....i looked it up on their site and for 3.5oz of hot sauce it is only 11 calories so ya not really too worried about it. Was just wondering how much hot sauce people use since I love it...(in before too much sodium).

[juliacheh]

Shoot me, I never used it.
No I think I am missing out - everybody uses it.

[ErickStevens]

Sriracha, Tobasco, Franks, Cholula - On the reg.

[crjorgensen]

I need to try sriracha cause I have heard it is absolutely incredible. Usually just get frank's red hot since it is all I have ever had and don't really like tabasco as much.....Also, since I am moving down to school here in a few weeks and will finally be buying my own groceries I think I am going to start buying some WF products....I love ketchup but used to easily eat at least 2-3 hundred calories in ketchup per day so was just wondering if there ketchup is anywhere close to normal ketchup or no? Honestly all I have read on these boards is that the maple syrup/chocolate are decent but everything else kinda sucks, but I have been craving some different sauces lately that are calorie friendly since I am only eating about 2250-2400 calories per day.

Love hot sauce. Been on a Franks kick but they didn't have it my last trip to Costco. Sriracha ftw

[Lvisaa2]

Franks on anything I wanna 'spice' up. I've been known to dose my rice in hot sauce. Also love it on egg whites, chicken, tuna, or even mixed in with some beans.


Although, I haven't used it as much lately. I go in phases. Sometimes it's on every meal and sometimes it's just the occasional use.

[Ryan314]

Not as much as I used too... heck, the thought of Frank's on scrambled eggs kinda makes me sick since I ate that so much in the past...

[HunterCML]

Depends what kind. I go through a large bottle of Chipotle Tabasco about every week because well - it's that damn good.

[Jamie94]

Damn I never knew hot sauce was so low calorie XD I love the stuff gotta start adding this to sandwiches

[Lvisaa2]

Ha, know that feeling. Although, I threw them on some scrambled eggs the other day and remembered why I loved it. Salsa is still better on 'em though. Nothing is better on a fully loaded up omelette than some spicy, chunky salsa(preferably freshly made).


Edit: I know what I'm eating for my first meal tomorrow.

[Christiffer]

Me neither, I do enjoy it though. Gonna have to grab a bottle now. To answe op, I most consistently use ketchup and BBQ sauce(sweet baby rays FTW)!!

[Ajones10]

I put this on just about every savory food I eat. That stuff is awesome.

[Mean_Bean]

I use only two drops of hot sauce. its called 15 minute burn. Look it up. You don't know hot sauce until you've tried 15min burn.

http://www.thedevilsgarden.co.uk/ind...PC-15-min-burn

...and the great thing is, @ only two drops, its virtually calorie free, and the bottle will last months.

[Ksorra]

Use franks the most, about a bottle a month (costco sized). Just got some sriracha, was not disappointed!!!!!

Oh and salsa on eggs IS in fact the best.

[ucsumma]

Sriracha, Tobasco, Franks, Cholula - On the reg.

^^^The good stuff

I use about 2 bottles of Rooster per week, then lesser amount of Frank's (Buffalo sauce will turn tuna into a delicacy) and Tobasco (Smoked Chipotle on eggs/whites - FTW).

[Lvisaa2]

The real bottle of Frank's:

[LumberJackedJoe]

YES! I love this a Frank's LOVE page pretty much. Frank's is the best there is nothing better. That being said no need to even worry about the sodium in it unless you have a condition where you need to limit salts. Many people believe lots of sodium bloats you etc., but that all depends on YOU, and how much your usually consuming on a daily basis.

[TitanFB11]

depends on what im eating tht day really.

i use it on potatoe salad,tacos, pizza,chicken, eggs, rice, tuna and prolly more **** tht i cant think of now.

id say on average a bottle of cholua will last me 3-4 weeks.

[HunterCML]

Meh. I've heard a lot of good things about franks..

Tabasco Vs. Franks

Who wins? I need to buy Franks to compare to my Tabasco but.. Chipotle will be hard to beat. Just sayin'

[DREhova 87]

I love hot sauce so much...my XBOX username is HotSauce2k!

never liked franks tht much TBH.

tobasco has much more of a flavor and is hotter.

but my favorite is prolly cholula.

I am glad to see everyone loves hot sauce on this site. I seriously use it on everything and Frank's is awesome....kinda curious about the chipotle stuff you were talking about hunter. I def. wanna try that as well since from all the nutrition threads I read on this site you are very knowledgeable when it comes to anything involving food. I have always been impressed by your protein based recipes like pancakes, muffins, etc....especially since I am so bad at cooking.

What I have been doing lately is adding cottage cheese as a salad dressing and then putting hot sauce on the cottage cheese. Definitely makes salad way more enjoyable to eat.

I assumed he was talking about some kind of southwest chipotle sauce. It is certainly delicious and one of my favorite and most versatile sauces. It is not as low cal as hot sauce though.

He could be referring to a brand of hot sauce, though.

Edit: Maybe - - This appears to be the same calorie wise as Frank's.

[MountainLion84]

Hot Sauce makes dieting tolerable...

I prefer Frank's Xtra Hot
