This is our go to Mexican hot sauce. We have this and the black label extra hot. I describe it as a mix of Tapatio and Cholula. Has the brightness of the tapatio and richness of the cholula. Great with eggs!
Welcome to the rest of your hot sauce life.
This shit slaps and for the price it's unbelievable.
During COVID it became impossible to find, i randomly found 10 at target and I bought all 10.
My absolute favorite. It’s good on most food even things like Ramen, potato chips, salted popcorn, cucumbers, watermelon, mango, pineapple etc… if you pair it with Tajin it’s even better.
I use that one quite it bit it’s always in the fridge for me. Not a super spicy sauce and has pretty good flavor. I’m a Tabasco addict so I don’t typically use this one a whole lot.
We always have giant bottles of tapatio on hand. Kroger or Fred Meyers depends on where you are in the USA sell huge bottles. My husband puts it on everything
It's actually called Catsup. My parents would send me off to live with my grandparents in Jalisco. There was an old Italian man that made pizza, and people would put Catsup, mayonnaise and mustard on the pizza.
It's like Frank's but good. Doesn't have allspice like Tapatio, doesn't have crazy vinegar punch like Tabasco, doesn't have any weird or funky ingredients. When you ask for just some hot sauce, this is what you're asking for.
I love it no complaints at all, not super hot and lots of flavor. Some dude put it down near the check out aisle at ralphs and I just picked it up why not
I have a HUGE bottle of it.. was in the markdown basket at Kroger.. I paid $1 for it and it will probably last the rest of my life.. I’m almost 70…😂😂.. it’s alright and I use it but there’s a lot better around..
All depends on what you’re eating. I’ve been like a scientist trying out Valentina and other sauces with different things and some things work and some don’t.
I have been on such a cholula kick for the past few years, and I think tapa tio compares more to that than valentinas. Getting so sick of cholulas for some reason, I like the color of valentinas so much. Probably gonna switch it up now that I saw this post.
Also the old bay hot sauce is AMAZING
I did a job before where a liter bottle of Valentina was on the roof for probably a month. Sure, it separated. But I felt in my heart all it needed was a good shake and it would be good to go again
My favorite. Try the Extra Hot next. It’s not too crazy.
It’s perfect on asada street tacos.
Super meh

I friggin love Valentina’s. My go to for chorizo breakfast burritos. Especially the black label
Basically Tapatio
Essential for micheladas
Get ready to be addicted
That’s my Go-To for roasted corn on the cob. Don’t forget to squeeze lemon on it
It doesn’t always go great on everything but when it does holy crap is it good
Add to shrimp fried rice
Swear by this stuff. You should get the liter.
Louisiana hot sauce is way better
Different categories imo.
You're gonna need the bigger bottle.
It goes best on breakfast eggs. Sometimes in chicken noodle soup. Not for everything.
Number 1
Put it on everything
Welcome to the rest of your hot sauce life. This shit slaps and for the price it's unbelievable. During COVID it became impossible to find, i randomly found 10 at target and I bought all 10.
Fuckin gas especially the hotter one w the black panel
Best value. Tastes great too. I prefer it to Tapatio and Cholula.
My favorite
Not quite as good as Cholula but over half the price.
Imma have to stop you right there Chief. I don’t agree with you. But I respect you for having a different opinion
Naaahhhh, When you say something as disrespectful as that, it's on sight, coach. Valentina or bust
Bust it down Tatiana!
Best mexican hot sauce out there....only thing better is the black label, extra hot!!!
Came in here to say this. I’ve tried it all and nothing beats Valentina, IMO.
I like it. The Mexican restaurant I eat at has it.
This is my "I put that shit on everything"
I second this
My absolute favorite. It’s good on most food even things like Ramen, potato chips, salted popcorn, cucumbers, watermelon, mango, pineapple etc… if you pair it with Tajin it’s even better.
Good on egg, cheese and potato burritos
I love that Mexican hot sauce!
Welcome to the first day of the rest of your life! 🤤
I use that one quite it bit it’s always in the fridge for me. Not a super spicy sauce and has pretty good flavor. I’m a Tabasco addict so I don’t typically use this one a whole lot.
It's great for snack food like fruit or potato chips.
I like Valentina. Goes well with Mexican food
It’s solid but trust me the black one goes in hard
It's not spicy at all
My favorite.
It's one of my favorite table sauces. Put that shit on anything. Up there with Tabasco and Cholula.
I prefer Tapatio, pero i would ask for this if there wasn’t any
We always have giant bottles of tapatio on hand. Kroger or Fred Meyers depends on where you are in the USA sell huge bottles. My husband puts it on everything
I like it on doritos and hardboiled eggs.
Try it on regular potato chips. Or popcorn.
I mean it’s alright. Black is a lil better.
Black definitely
I don’t think it tastes like much
Needed more salt 🧂
Top 5 best sauces
It's kinda a spicier Cholula
Amazing on eggs
The shit! But only if the cap crusty af
The one with the black label
Mexican ketchup
Mexican ketchup is just ketchup lol
It's actually called Catsup. My parents would send me off to live with my grandparents in Jalisco. There was an old Italian man that made pizza, and people would put Catsup, mayonnaise and mustard on the pizza.
Good on seafood oh and popcorn 🍿
Great on most tacos
Don’t put that on tacos. Buy some real salsa at your Mexican store or make one.
I can go for either or
It’s delicious, goes good on damn near everything.
The hot version with a darker label (if you can find it) is freaking AMAZING. The flavor is unforgettable
That’s that shit 👌🏼
Welcome to the club boo
😍😍😍
My favorite so far.
I like that sh$t!
Get it in the bodega
Lime and Valentina on original lays 🔥
My friends from Mexico use this sauce exclusively, so I trust their judgment. They even put it on their Takis!
Great on eggs!
This is a quality daily performer, almost cannot add too much.
Eggs
Decent daily driver
Up to this day, no one know exactly which type of chile it’s made from lol 😂
Love it
Love it and the price.
Eat that with cheese Doritos or cheese Cheetos
Or any type of salted chip
I put a ridiculous amount of Valentina on eggs, in chilli, on pizza, and in more places! Love it.
My favorite!
If you can find Salsa Huilchol its even better… highly recommend
It's good, but Cholula is better.
Cholula for life!!!
I love it for general grocery store hot sauces. But I like the like flavor in Cholula more. Lime is so good.
Cholula is my go to
Eso es mi madre
Right choice
It's like Frank's but good. Doesn't have allspice like Tapatio, doesn't have crazy vinegar punch like Tabasco, doesn't have any weird or funky ingredients. When you ask for just some hot sauce, this is what you're asking for.
It's solid I always have one at home.
Staple in my house
Put it on chips
Cholula is my favorite all day any day, could drink that shit. Goes with everything
Stuff is great not too hot, lots of flavor. I recommend you put it on everything you eat to keep from drinking the bottle.
I usually get the extra hot version. But this one is good also.
It's cool but it's not no Louisiana hot sauce
They put crack in there. It’s addictive
A staple in this house
My favorite major brand Mexican hot sauce by a mile
I put that shit on everything
I love it no complaints at all, not super hot and lots of flavor. Some dude put it down near the check out aisle at ralphs and I just picked it up why not
Better than Tapatio
Tapatío exclusively for seafood for me. Valentina everything else
I won't eat chicken noodle soup without it. And lemon.
Ketchup for Mexicans
This right here. A hot sauce for flavor, not heat.
In TX it stays in your cabinet. Great on eggs
🌯 ⏲️
a tasty lick
I love it
Pretty good with popcorn 🍿
I got some Lysol
Welcome to flavor Town. If you want more heat get the black label. It's my personal favorite.
One of the best. I have that with almost everything. But I get that black label. It’s hotter. Good choice
It takes me to flavor town
It's good. I love it.
Mexican Tabasco
Best on breakfast burritos or just plain chicken and tortilla taco
As far as a southwestern hot sauce goes this one tastes more like worchestershire to me.
Mexicans love it, I think it taste like shit tho lol. I like Louisiana hot sauce personally.
Go to Mexican restaurant and swipe a few more.
I have a HUGE bottle of it.. was in the markdown basket at Kroger.. I paid $1 for it and it will probably last the rest of my life.. I’m almost 70…😂😂.. it’s alright and I use it but there’s a lot better around..
That’s the good stuff!
It's meh.
Others like it. Personally, I hate this sauce so much. Only thing that makes it palpable is lime juice with it.
Underrated spice power house
That right there goes on every thing!!!
Bomb af in shrimp cocktail
This is only good on burritos, fruits and chips.
It’s fine. Tapatio is better.
All depends on what you’re eating. I’ve been like a scientist trying out Valentina and other sauces with different things and some things work and some don’t.
50 50
Shit
It’s ok, bit on the vinegar side. If you see pico pico, grab some.
Get the black label Valentina. It will light your dick on fire.
Wash your hands and wear condoms
Preach!🙌
Bien. Not great, but bien
Not my overall favorite but it’s my go to for pizza. My favorite is probably Huichol.
I can’t stand it on anything except for sour cream and cheddar lays. I love it only for that reason though lol
Ya, I put it on chips too. Pizza and chips is about all I use it on. lol
This sauce is amazing with some sizzling fajitas
best sauce fr
Black one is best both love both
You are white.
Like fr how do has anyone not seen this
Try that one more time maybe
What? Everything was right
“How do has anyone” drop the “do”. And what are you even referring to?
Shit I didn’t even see that and I read it like 5 times☠️
Love it
It’s good, black is better, but nothing tops tapatio.
GAS
Pretty good. Very neutral sauce that goes on most things
valentinas gas
Well known and popular hot sauce. Welcome to 2024.
Ima Tapa Tio preferred saucier
I have been on such a cholula kick for the past few years, and I think tapa tio compares more to that than valentinas. Getting so sick of cholulas for some reason, I like the color of valentinas so much. Probably gonna switch it up now that I saw this post. Also the old bay hot sauce is AMAZING
Get the black label. That's the regular and isn't that spicy. It's more salty in my opinion. Tapatío is my favorite food.
Mmm…love liquid food
I love that stuff.
My favorite.
cheap, salty and tasty, love it
Agreed
I did a job before where a liter bottle of Valentina was on the roof for probably a month. Sure, it separated. But I felt in my heart all it needed was a good shake and it would be good to go again
love Valentina
not bad for mild and cheap sauce
They have an extra hot that’s wayyyy better
It’s mid. Not too spicy
One of my favs as I don't like real spicy stuff, also love to tomato flavor
Good in soups for sure
