I'm a big chili fan and can handle some decent heat, this comes closest: https://www.flyinggoosebrand.com/product/sriracha-blackout/

But it kind of defeats the point if Sriracha, for me at least, which is slightly hot garlic ketchup-like red stuff

I also did not care for the Tabasco version, but couldn't articulate the reason. Melinda's is what I finally switched to after I couldn't find Sriracha brand. I like many of their other sauces as well, particularly their Black Truffle Hot Sauce.

As someone who loves spicy to the point of literally sweating, do NOT get The Bomb from Hot Ones. That shit is not fit for human consumption. Literally 2 drops for a plate of food is a risk. When I first got it, I put a dab on a chip and tried it directly. The head high felt like I was on actual drugs. Once in a while, I'll bust it out just to know I still feel. It's not for food though.

Have you tried the one chip challenge?

It's fine if you don't get it, but for some people the spice is as important, or more important, than the flavor

Man I went to this Thai food place and they repeatedly warned me about how hot it was and I'm like pfffft I've had had and most places that warn you don't live up to it. But man was it way to damn spicy, the next morning my pee burned and I was on the toilet half the day

This mayonnaise is spicy.

I'm convinced Sriracha is different in different places. Obviously, different brands have varied heat but the classic one available worldwide is definitely hot, it's not extreme but definitely hot. I wouldn't call myself a hot sauce person either but I do enjoy hot foods and condiments, I'd say about average on heat sensitivity. I know several people who just can't have Sriracha because it's too hot for them, and it's easy to make something too hot with a lot of it IMO.

This shit is like me. If I'm going to a Thai place I'm not a regular at, it's pretty much impossible for them to serve some white guy the hot stuff. Even actual "Southern Thai hot" isn't hot enough for my screwed up tastes to catch a real heat buzz, so normally what I get served seems heatless to me.

What usually gets the point home is telling the waitress its good tasting, but bland, and asking if I could have some birds eye pepper to put extra on it. For all the talk about how hot Thai food is, all they actually use are birds eye peppers (fresh, or dried and ground), which are around as hot as a Serrano pepper, or about half to a third as hot as a habanero. So for someone who can just eat a habanero, them going weak on the birds eye means I'm really not getting the kick I crave. Asking specifically for the hottest thing they put in their food (just me knowing what peppers they are) usually takes care of it.

They did not. It was a personal relationship that went sour, so it'll probably never happen.

I enjoy eating habanero peppers! Good flavor! Makes good salsa too.

We have a lot of tourists and "Thai hot" still doesn't get you anywhere. You have to make (good natured) threats to get the real deal.

Ain't cheap though...

The "extra hot" sriracha in the imports is good.

I usually just go for a Korean Raman at this point. They at least live up to their label. I've also taken to making my own sauces at home with peppers from the imports.

"The only way I will send this back is if it isn't spicy enough. Tell the chef he has a weak little Denmark pallette who thinks a bell pepper will burn his lips off."

My parents think a jalapeno-based sauce will kill you, and they refuse to believe there even exists anything hotter than that.

Yeah, I agree. I'm not the biggest fan of Sriracha, but the purpose isn't to be spicy. It's to add spices and flavor. You can add other stuff in addition to make things spicy. Similarly, Tabasco is a seasoning. It's technically labeled a hot sauce, but it's very mild and there for the flavor. There's plenty of other options to increase the heat. They serve different purposes.
