OK now it's well establish where you come from, my question for you as a foreigner is 'What is the BEST Louisiana Hot Sauce?'
My favorite Louisiana Hot Sauce is Crystal Hot Sauce, out of the 3 million gallons produce a year I'm repsonsible for consuming close to a million gallons a year - no not really I just love the stuff. I was wondering since you come from LA you would be in the know as the best hot suace out there.

Ranked as follows:
#1 Tobasco sauce (and all its different flavors, but the original is the best)
#2 "Louisiana" brand hot sauce (The one with the red dot)
#3-thru-idon'tcare: Everything else.
Tobasco has a long tradition here as being the most popular and most used hot sauce in and around Louisiana. It's made in Avery Island (About 5 or 6 miles away from my house) and even the salt used in the sauce is mined there and the peppers are grown there.
If you haven't tasted it, it's got a lot more kick than typical Louisiana or Crystal hot sauce. It's not as viscous, and has a more tangy flavor (original flavor).
Anyway, it's far better on a larger variety of food than the type of hot sauce you like... although I like that type as well, I just have certain applications for it. Tobasco serves nearly all my needs though.
