Tabasco Sauce Makes Hot Advertising
Tabasco, the hot sauce produced by McIllhenny, has been the subject of a number of quirky television commercials over the years.

You may have seen the 1996 television commercial for Tabasco sauce in which God up in heaven notices too late that his tabasco sauce bottle is dripping down to earth, causing terrible scorching explosions down below.
