Tabasco is practically the state drink down there. I actually think it one of the more complex-tasting sauces, though certainly not the hottest. I can still remember a trip to the McIlhenny plantation on Avery Island where they make the stuff. The aroma was fantastic. To get sort of back to photography, I once read that HCB carried around a small container of hot pepper paste from North Africa so he could add it to his food when it was too bland. I've no idea if this is true, but you can bring a lot of stuff back to life with Tabasco. -- Phil Swango 307 Aliso Dr SE Albuquerque, NM 87108 http://pswango.smugmug.com/ pswango(at)att.net
