Yes.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA HOT SAUCE

it is okay. It is worth a try if you haven't had it before.

>>15221892
gets old fast

>>15221892
It’s mostly a meme, it tastes decent, but it’s nothing to get excited about.

>>15221892
fucking great on mac and cheese

>>15221892
Tastes like soap.

>>15221892
It reeks of garlic, I don't find it suitable for indoor consumption.

People who say it's a meme haven't had it enough. It's objectively the most appetizing condiment to ever exist.

>>15221892
Yeah I'm not a big fan of it. You can get better flavor-heat combinations from dry spices. It's subjective but I'd prefer tobasco or some local meme hotsauce from a farmers market.

>>15221932
It's stupidly sugary to the point where it may as well be spicy ketchup. Even the original brand is nearly 40% sugar.

>>15222008
>It's stupidly sugary
It's fucking 1g you retard. Do your research.

yes

>>15221892
Only one way to find out

>>15222045
>per 4g
based

>>15222045
Per teaspoon.

>>15221892
the latter

>>15221892
Excellent sauce, wish soy connoisseurs hadn't given it a bad name. Lee Kum Lee is also surprisingly good.

>>15222045
>1g
>per 4g (had to fudge the teaspoon weight)
Oh, no no no nono no... Third ingredient is fucking sugar. It's chili-sugar sauce.

>>15222065
You do know soy is popular in the orient, right?

>>15222065
>wish soy connoisseurs hadn't given it a bad name.
It's mild and sugary. It's no big surprise that the Redd/int/ brownies and >>>/y/outube faggots latched onto it like some kind of mana from heaven.

>>15222071
Soy connoisseurs are a Western phenomenon.

>>15222090
Thats a good one. Tofu, edamame, natto, soy milk, tempeh are all traditional Asian meal staples.

>>15222100
Are you just gonna make non sequiturs all night?

>>15222107
Depends, how long do you plan on staying up?

>>15222100
I'm here to appropriate that culture, though not really since those all fucking suck.
Also sodium content in soy sauce is a fucking ride. Gives me hypertension just reading the label.

>>15222110
Those are all great and healthy. Soy sauce i agree, but to deny the fact that tofu is a staple in Asian cooking is absurd.

It's Garlic plus Hot Sauce minus the vinegar.

What's not to like?

>>15222113
Edamame's alright, to be fair. Only tofu I've ever had that was actually good was in China where it was undoubtedly bathed in salt- but still good. Fuck Natto though, seriously gross.
In any case I think the other guy is just talking about the soylent estrogen meme.

>>15222134
National is the only one I've yet to try but I want to. Ive been eating soy products for the last 7-8 years and I lost a lot of weight and also my man boobs from being fat. I dont get the estrogen meme pushed on here. It's not true at all.

>>15222107
All jokes aside I've not made one non sequitur at all.

>>15221892
I remember a few years ago when this meme sauce and pretzel meme bread were everwhere.

>>15222142
I think there were a few cases(im not citing sources for it) where trannies were drinking it, and so the correlation was made and pushed. In the end it's just a conversation derailing buzzword like everything else ends up becoming. No interest in soy myself but thats not because I'm afraid it'll turn me into a balding Star Wars fan.

As far as that tofu goes, it was called Doupi and its a mix of meat and tofu. Finding this shit is hard when you don't speak Chinese.

>>15221892
food actually taste better without it if that helps

ever heard of Thai sauce?

>>15221892
no, use sambal

>>15222121
Sugar

>>15221892
It's an ok sauce. Valentina's extra hot is a much better one though.

>>15222231
It's not like you're eating the whole bottle in one sitting.

>>15222247
Don't tell me what to do.

I didn't like it at first, too sweet. Then it grew on me when my bro's gf bought some and I ran out of Frank's.

>>15222214
This.

The only thing about sriracha that is better than sambal is the squirt bottle.

>>15222214
everything this anon says is true

>>15222121
that I have to fucking drown a sandwich in it and have it leaking off the sides to get it somewhat spicy.

>>15221892
basically a better ketchup

>>15222862
Then you've never had a good ketchup.

Sriracha is very much like some of very mediocre ketchup, except spicy.

>>15221892
it probably seems pretty mind blowing if you're a whitebread from the midwest who never had anything other than a mayo sandwich

we don't really think about it too much on the coast, it's just... there. is it good? is it bad? neither I guess, it's like coca cola. always been there, never really questioned it. for some reason it exploded with online meme culture in the 2000s so something must have happened.

viral marketing campaign. AKA astroturfing.
