At the beginning of a new year, it’s quite natural to spend a lot of your time focusing forward. There are all those resolutions to consider now (before they disappear from your mind halfway through the year) and plenty of goals, vacations, and celebrations coming up in the next few months. At Ashley Foods, we’re also looking forward. We have new sauces and products on the horizon, not to mention all those fiery chilies we need to grow.

We can (and do) rehash the health benefits of consuming capsaicin until the cows come home (or until we’re blue in the face, or any other archaic phrase used to denote some later or excessive time). And, there are plenty of benefits; no shortage of them really. Chili peppers reduce the free radicals in your body, reduce insulin levels, and assist in the reduction of unhealthy cholesterol levels.

Love the World’s Hottest Hot Sauces? You Shouldn’t Scare Your Guests with Condiments We love chilies and the world’s hottest hot sauces. That shouldn’t be a surprise. We are, after all, an artisanal producer of some of the world’s hottest hot sauces.

Not only are the ever-increasing number of Scovilles in the hottest hot sauces, but you’ll also find more bottles on the shelves every year. The number of celebrities (and presidential candidates) that profess their love of all things chili are on the rise too. And, you could spend days watching people eat the most astounding hot sauces and chili peppers and subsequently crying (at best) before you run out of options.
