Good Evening.  In case you don't know about them, I would like to recommend
a couple of good hot sauces.  Here in Texas, at my Super One Foods and
Brookshire's Grocery, they are available; we have a lot of Mexican hot
sauces in our markets these days, with the influx of immigrants.  As for
the Vietnamese hot sauces, they are excellent.  The "Sriracha" is
sweet-sour, which normally I do not like; but this is a good combination of
flavors.  The last one listed below is so damn good, I can eat it by the
spoonful right out of the jar.

"Sriracha" has gone mainstream, as it showed up in my town; and another
member of the list said that he could get it in his small town in Illinois.
The other day I asked my grocery manager to order the "Viet-Nam" (which I
now have to purchase at a Vietnamese market in Dallas) -- saying that if he
could get the "Sriracha", he could also get the "Viet-Nam" because they are
made by the same company, Huy Fong in California.  http://www.huyfong.com/
Buon Appetito!  Roberto

MEXICAN

La Costeņa Jalapeņo Mexican Hot Sauce

According to the ingredients, this is about like buying a can of whole
pickled jalapeņos from La Costeņa, and pureeing them in the blender,
seasonings and all.  But they add a bit of a smoky flavor to this
"Tabasco-sauce" like concoction.
