Yo guys, you've helped out our little business here over the last 3 years. I've taken everyone's opinion in to account from what our bottles looked like to our pricing. I still need to send out a ton of bottles your way, I've sent probably around only 25 to you guys. Hope to start sending more out asap.

Like every other startup we dropped a kickstarter. The word from everyone here was $40/ donation got you a bottle was way to much, I agree.

We've cut that in half for now. I've been telling everyone that 20 buck gets you a bottle to your door, half what it use to be. Drop me your name at 20 and I'll make sure they go out.

We're growing fast and need all we can get. We seriously need better equipment from blenders, larger bottling and induction sealing machines, to larger bottles and ingredient orders. If you like us help us out, if you don't we still like you.

Props to you guys, making it in the food industry is a lot of work, most people don't realize how much goes into it. I just hope the supermarket food buyers you deal with in the future aren't as bad as some of the ones I had to deal with.

Thanks guys. The amount of work and cash has been miles above what we expected. When we started this a few years back we had no idea about the amount of government regulations, taxes, legal issues there would be. From acceptable font and label sizes to proper sealing techniques it's a lot of reading and learning on the fly - but it's going well.

Like I said we need all the help we can get...financially. We’re growing faster than we expected, which of course is good. But at the same time every spare dollar we have gets put into the biz. Just drop me a message and everyone on NS who donates 20 bucks will get the 'gift' we were originally giving out for 40.

I still owe people a lot of free bottles that will be on their way. We just got a shipment of 500 in late last week that we should be filling asap. Shipping’s a killer but I want to hook It up for everyone here, and if that means me taking a hit, it’s well worth it.

On top of that for people who are going crazy, our T shirts are all high quality 50/50 blend AA tees. Super soft and awesome.

Big thanks to Doug and Travis for helping us out as well. Hope you guys will see some NS Chi-Cho Sauce advertising soon.

Because I've been on here for 10+ years and have seen what NS has done for small business in the community. Why is Redbull so vested in the sport as well...it seems they’re doing something right.

We'll be the classy ass hotsauce targeting this community like no one else has-

Hope you'll enjoy it when you get your hands on it.

I'd love to, was actually one of the discussion on this end. Let's see how our budget is looking the next month or so.

It would 100% be my middle school and mid20 year old dreams come true all in one.

Because I fucking love hot sauce n00b. Hotsauce is king.





OP your sauce is awesome. Something different in a market that can sometimes be stale. I wasn't so sure on first taste as it wasnt what I was expecting but I quickly got addicted.

Thinking of maybe buying a box of 10 or something like that when I get back to the states.

Keep killing it. With that first thread it was hard to tell if it would really go anywhere. Glad to see you stuck with it.


The sauce is legit guys. Get some of it
