🔥 The Hot Sauce Label Truth: Why Ingredient Order Changes the Heat!

Ever wonder why some hot sauces hit hard while others are all flavor, no fire? The answer isn’t just in the Scoville scale—it’s hidden in the ingredient list.

We’ll uncover:

🧄 How small amounts of garlic, onion, and spices shape flavor complexity
🔥 The difference between pepper potential vs. actual heat in the bottle
