I 100% believe that the only reason Mexican restaurants serve Chalula next to Tapatio on the table is for their white customers.
Cholula is good tho
@marq if you like a sweeter, less spicy hot sauce, sure.
Around here, where there are a TON of Mexican restaurants you'll see Tapatio in most, and Chalula next to it in more gentrified areas.
However if you go into a place that is in a mostly white area, you'll only see Chalula on the table and you'll have to ask for the Tapatio.
I can't take Korean or Thai heat either.
I'm thinking both cultural and evolutionary forces are at play.
@marq Just had Thai food two nights ago. Yellow curry is SO good.
