Newsflash: Not too long ago, I wrote to announce the impending demise of Big John's Famous Key West Blue Hot Sauce, because the manufacturer had decided to discontinue the product. Well, today I learned that Big John's Famous Key West Mango Fandango Hot Sauce (with the yellow label in the photo) has met the same fate. In fact, the rumor is that the manufacturer is no longer in business, but I haven't yet been able to confirm that rumor. At this time, the Carolina Sauce Company does have a few bottles of each flavor of Big John's Key West hot sauces left in stock (and we've ordered the remaining bottles of Mango Fandango that our supplier had in stock), so you can still get them, at least for the short term. If you've never tried these tasty tropical hot sauces from Key West, Florida, then now is the time to do so, before they're gone for good. Each flavor is (or was) handmade and bottled, and the Mango Fandango is particularly good with its unique blend of Caribbean ingredients including mango, papaya, yams (yes, yams!) and scotch bonnet peppers in a honey-sweetened mustard base. I'll miss this yummy hot sauce, as well as the other flavors of Big John's Famous Key West Hot Sauces, and I'm sure I'm not the only one.
Zestfully yours,
Gloria
