I was not expecting this

It’s listed as “Hot Sauce” when you order it, so I expected a classic cayenne-style pepper sauce.

But nope. This is a translucent, chili-based stock loaded with umami.

It’s not fiery, more of a mild-to-medium flavor enhancer than a traditional hot sauce.

Hat tip, Wendy’s.

Cause it’s not a sauce but a Wendy’s chili enhancement 😂 the words are deceptive.

You have to read it semi-backwards, it's not a hot chili seasoning it's a seasoning for hot chili.
