There is no shortage of food holidays, which makes Mad Dog Hot Sauce an active product to add to your menu! There's also no shortage of cheeseburger, which America can’t get enough of. Did you know that September boasts not just one, but two cheeseburger holidays? Leading us to National Cheeseburger Days!

August is National Sandwich Month and that shouldn’t sound a bit silly to you.  After all, you should consider all the other fun holidays that Americans celebrate, such as “Talk Like a Pirate Day."  That, incidentally, you should celebrate by enjoying your meals with Mad Dog Pure Ghost Hot Sauce.  We’re not sure why, but they go together perfectly.  And, if you can speak like a pirate for a whole day, well, we support that too.

Why do chilies burn?  It doesn’t matter whether you love hot sauce or not, chilies burn; some people just have a higher pain threshold than others.  It could be because they’ve developed a love for the world’s hottest sauces and they continue to build their tolerance.  Or, it could simply be because they are birds.  No, truly, birds are immune to the effects of capsaicin – the compound that gives chilies their fiery flavor.

There are hot sauces, and then there are the world’s hottest sauces. Everyone has a threshold they can tolerate. Capsaicin works a little differently on each person, of course.
