      Great guess.

      This is from the American chain restaurant Buffalo Wild Wings (I’d recognize that menu any day), and they’re known for their sauces. “Wild” is a buffalo-style sauce and is their second hottest. And as a half Latino hot pepper enthusiast, I can confirm that it is indeed hot. (Personally I’m a fan of their Mango Habanero sauce.)

      From their menu (ignore the blue circles; this was the clearest image I could find): Picture of a menu from Buffalo Wild Wings, showing their list of sauces, arranged from least spicy to most. For the visually impaired: you can find a list on their website, though the website does not sort them by heat level

        Mango habernero is indeed the best. Jamming jalapeño is quite tasty too.

        There was a short while they switched their Blazin’ to a very tasty ghost pepper that was very good despite being super hot but it’s back to being hot but not very good.

          I went to BDubs the other night just to try Jammin’ Jalapeño because of your comment. I see why you like it; it’s very similar to Mango Habanero. So similar, in fact, that to me it tastes just like mango habanero, except without the mango. It’s not bad but too similar for me. So I think I’ll stick with Caribbean Jerk as my second half and half option (or Parm Garlic). But thanks for introducing it to me.

        Is the 25 calories comprehensive?

        If I shit my brains out eating “screamin hot sauce” - is it new calorie negative or positive?

          You’re absolutely right to be suspicious. 😉 I forget if there’s a term for it or not, but I saw a video on a theory that says that AI is changing the way people speak.

          FWIW, I very much intended to write the comment to sound like one. In this little social experiment I was testing for two things: 1. To see if speaking in the same patronizing tone an LLM uses actually results in a positive response from people (looks like it did), and 2. To see if anyone would even notice. (I almost got away with it too.)

          Congrats on catching on.
