| Full Review |
I have had this thing with Tabasco all my life. As far back as I can remember anyway. My parents started me out with a dab on my eggs and since that time, I am unable to eat eggs without it.
Nothing else will do. I have tried everything. I have a wide variety to choose from when I run out of Tabasco Sauce. It's all those bottles I buy of different brands in an attempt to find something better. Better? I would settle for "close to". Nothing has ever come close to the great flavor of Tabasco in my eyes.
You can buy Tabasco memorabilia. They have a great online store. I have ordered from them several times and I have to pat them on the back for service and speed of expediting orders. They are quick to ship and the orders arrive within a week from the time I ordered them. Great job!
The charges can be alright but on the other hand, not. If you order a $2.75 bottle of Tabasco, you will pay $8.08 for shipping. I know, this is bad but if you order $40 worth of goods, you will pay $9.76. Or $100 worth is about $10 bucks. Go figure. I realize that this is outrageous but that is a good reason to order more than one little inexpensive item. Right?
They provide all the standard shipping options that most sites offer. They will also ship to P.O. boxes. Some companies will not do this.
The site is set up in a really fun layout. They provide you with Tabasco history and it is interesting too. You have to check out what sort of bottles were first used to package Tabasco way back in the 1800's. It has to be good considering how long it has been around!
Departments are as follows:
The Country Store. (this is where you find your stuff to order)
The taste tent, Arts Pavilion, Music Stage, Tabasco Tent, Social Hall, History Tent, Info Booth and the International section. They leave no stone unturned.
Okay, so what sort of things can you find at the Tabasco website? Let me tell you!
First off, you are able to order your standard Tabasco sauces but unless you are ordering in bulk, I would suggest you just go to the market to buy them. The shipping charges for the small amounts are just not worth it when you can get them at the store.
There is a sauce that I believe you can not buy at your market yet though and that is their new Chipotle Pepper Sauce. Unfortunately, this is limited to 2001 and you can only get it online or through their print catalog. It is exclusive. I have not tried it yet but do have a bottle ordered. Well, two of them actually. I want to use one and save the other simply because it is limited. I do those sort of things.
Tabasco offers many, many things for the Tabasco® collector. You can buy tiny bottles of Tabasco or a gallon jug of Tabasco. I am going to get one of them someday but they are expensive. About $40 bucks. But it would not go to waste in my home.
Tabasco® offers other things as well. You can get dip bowls, mugs, glasses, implements, chili, bar accessories, cookbooks, bottle holders (useful), housewares, home accessories, oven mitts, pot holders, towels, T-shirts, sweat shirts, polo shirts, pretty bottles, and on and on...if you want it, chances are you will find it there and sporting the Tabasco® logo. It's great!
The prices are very reasonable and they do not differ to that found in their catalog. Either way you will find what you want for the Tabasco lover. I have Tabasco items everywhere.
What can Tabasco give you for your computer? Odd question, isn't it? Well..they have screen savers, desktop items including some very cute icons. And they have wall papers. Each one is truly unique. Give them a try. And they are free.
Navigating through the Tabasco site is simple and fast. It is optimized well. No dragging or crashing. You will enjoy your surfing experience with them I am positive.
That’s about it. Not much more to say. You have to check them out. Even if you do not like Tabasco yourself, I am sure that there is a Tabasco lover in your family that would love it if you would remember them for Christmas or any other time by giving them a Tabasco gift. I know that I would!
