I know it’s very downmarket and Guy Fieriesque of me to like something like a supermarket hotsauce, but damn is it delicious. Much better than any artisanal brand or even those I’ve imported from Mexico. I buy it by the half-gallon from Amazon and pour it into plastic squeeze bottles. That lasts a good year. 39%20PM

From the halls of Montezuma

That’s MOCtezuma, you bad pronouncer!Incidentally, I feel like it’s usually not worth the trouble trying to pronounce foreign words correctly here in the U.S., unless you are talking to native speakers of the relevant language (and even then they are probably just likely to roll their eyes). You end up getting a lot of weird looks because people think you’re being pretentious.
