I've passed this info along to my husband, and I'm really hoping that we will 
determine that
tabasco sauce can, in fact, be used in this application.  First, I love the 
stuff, and use it a
lot (try it on pizza - you'll feel a lot less guilty, and it tastes a lot 
better than salt &
pepper or pepper flakes).

But secondly, it's easy to find and grab in our kitchen, and something easy to 
remember....
