2 out of 5 stars You get what you pay for...   January 5, 2003
 7 out of 8 found this review helpful

This is a small reference book, full of names, addresses & contact info for hot sauce vendors. But, don't expect an eye-popper, there's not much more to it than your local yellow pages. I bought this as a stocking stuffer for a hot sauce enthusiast, and wound up not giving it. Based on the photo, I expected a colorful book, full of pictures of hot sauce bottles, chilis, and what-not. There are no pictures, just listings. It has all the excitement of the local phone directory. The paper is newsprint-like, adding to the "yellow pages" tone of the book. It is very small in reality, pocketbook size, and thin. The content is not ~remotely~ exciting as I'd hoped.
But,,, if you're just looking for a small portable directory to find names & addresses for hot saucing, this little ... book could be handy.

4 out of 5 stars A Great Introduction to Hot Sauce   June 12, 2001
 4 out of 5 found this review helpful

This is a fun book that categories hot sauce by region and gives a heat rating from 1 to 4 chilies. While the flavors and ingredients are included, and the rating system is generally accurate, this book would be more useful if it included a better comparison to well known hot sauces (such as Tabasco) and if the authors included a short list of sauces that would serve as an introduction to various regional hot sauces.


4 out of 5 stars Fabulous book for the beginner or experienced collector   March 2, 1999
 11 out of 12 found this review helpful

The book is a great starting point for someone who is interested in beginning a collection of hot sauce. There is a lot of information that is useful in helping someone who may not know where to look to start a collection. Some of the information however is out of date. For example I was searching for a particular hot sauce that was listed and the address of where to get it was a man's home address and he did not collect or have any of the hot sauce that he was referred to as having. There are not many of those mistakes and if someone is really looking for a particular sauce there is plenty of information and locations listed within the book to call or email for additional information or to have a brochure sent to you personnally. This book was given to me as a gift and it was how I was started in collecting hot sauce. Because of this book I have met many neat and interesting people as well as visited the sites and activities that are listed within.


5 out of 5 stars collectors' guide to pepper sauces in JTT's hot sauce poster   September 29, 1997
 3 out of 4 found this review helpful

An excellent short-cut to locating any of the hundreds of sauces seen in Thompson's well-known posters. Mfrs' name/address/phone, even E-mail address (for many). US & international. A must-buy: the cool way to collect hot stuff.
