Someone once told me the only reason people eat escargot is it makes an excellent vehicle for drawn butter. I feel many foods exist only as a vehicle for their condiment counterpart... Tortilla chips would have no purpose without salsa. French fries would be obsolete without Ketchup. Last night was Cinco de Mayo and I bought a fresh Cholula for the occasion. Tacos, chips, guacamole, rice and beans were our feast, and within an hour, two girls managed to consume a third of a bottle of hot sauce. It was only later I realized this food could also be categorized as a vehicle for stomach ulcers.

I LOVE THAT STUFF. However, I still have the same bottle I bought two years ago. Huh, I wonder how long it lasts.
