Speaking of collector's items....I have a bottle of hot sauce with no label,
but it has a stuffed Voodoo doll wrapped around it. It was, I think, made
by a company from Portsmouth, VA (near where I grew up) that has since gone
out of business. I paid $16 ($16!!) for the bottle because someone (owner
of a hot sauce store in Temecula, CA) told me they would pay me $50 ($50!!)
for a bottle if I ever got one. For a variety of reasons, I never sold him
the sauce....and my question now is -- to eat or not to eat?
Anyone have any insight? Thanks.
Matt

Actually, the Fifi's Nasty Little Secret people went out of business. If
you got some sauces for Xmas, you might want to hold onto them. They will
likely be collector's items.
