. . . speaking of "a little Tabasco," don't forget the ultralight version of this famous Cajun hot sauce on your trip:



My favorite hot sauce ever was something they served at a little place on the west coast of Barbados, made from some tiny Caribbean peppers that gave jalapenos the term "mild." The label on the bottle said it was called "Slap My -ss and Call Me Sally," which got a good laugh until I tasted it -- definitely not recommended in the backcountry if you're pacing your water intake.
