During my maiden trip to Japan, I was shocked by how McDonald’s didn’t provide chilli sauce for its meals. Generally speaking, Singaporeans love their chilli sauce. Don’t believe me. Look at my array of food photos.

If you zero in on my photos, you will notice that my favourite brand is Ultra Death Sauce. My ritual in Japan involves me buying a bottle of this much-anticipated chilli sauce. You can infer that I savour every single drop of it, given how much I use it to spice up my meals.

The idea for this post came yesterday when my wife brought home this marvellous bottle of chilli sauce from Yugoslavia.

I just love the way it tantalised and flirted with my taste buds!

Are you a chilli person? Flex me your spice endurance powers!!!

In New Mexico (southwestern US state) the McDonalds all have a large pot of green chile sauce. It's roasted green peppers diced up with onion and sauted, then some cumin and a bit of flour to thicken it with chicken broth as a base. I lived there years ago but still fill my freezer with roasted green chile peppers every fall so I can make the stuff. It goes on about half the food in New Mexico (the other half being topped with the smokier cousin - red chile!)

You don't add Chilli flakes on your pizza and pasta? Are you sure you are Italian? Haha.

I know. My forehead starts sweating and I get agita

Best to stay away but I fully endorse red chilli flakes on a nice tortellini smothered in olive oil. Molto bene.

Mcdonalds in Taiwan didnt provide bbq sauce for their chicken nuggets. Such a disappointment!

reply

You should come to Singapore then. We have garlic chilli sauce AND BBQ sauce

reply

For some reason they just didnt have BBQ sauce. I had a hard time finding it at grocery stores, too.

reply

With all the (most likely) delicious foods in Taiwan, you opt for a fucking M.C Donnie?!

Shame on you, SattlMattl, shame on you...

reply

Yes, sometimes you want to eat comfort food when you live in a foreign country.

😠.

I don't usually eat everything spicy 🌶️ but I do like it! When I visited Peru I was very surprised that they use a lot of spicy food there, even in the snacks at the store, you can find all kinds of spicy food. I don't consider myself a chili lover enough to use it in every meal, but I do find it essential in some others. I hope to try that "Ultra Death Sauce" one day.

Spicy snacks - sounds like my cup of tea

Thanks for the introduction! I think Ryan Reynolds is so funny

reply

I do like it but only in small amounts. Just enough to add a bit of a kick.

reply

Moderation is key.

Though sometimes I like to overwhelm my taste buds, especially when I’m tucking into tom yum or mala

reply

This could start a war... but who here thinks beans belong in chili? Those who do please state your case for that insane opinion.

reply

As in dip long beans into chilli?

reply

any sort of beans in chili! it is quiet the argument in the US lol

reply

I do like Chilli 🌶 and spicy food it's seems spicy
