It is liquefied deliciousness. It is required for sandwiches, any Mexican food, and hell most things that are acceptable for it (not fruit.) But yeah, I will try to put it on most, it is so good.

Gotta say, depends on context and quality of hot sauce. For example, I was in Indonesia quite recently and they smear the shit on EVERYTHING (Well, Indonesian hot sauce - Sambal. Essentially slightly sweet, tomato-ish stuff. Volcanic in heat, however.) they eat - even fruit.

I, myself, like it in a more limited set of contexts. If it's a more complex meal something would benefit from a bit of an extra kick, I'll add a dash - more often than not though, I find pre-made hot sauces add elements to the flavour of a dish that aren't always totally complimentary. I tend to re-season and add extra chillis / chilli powder with extra spices where it's warranted.

Then again, if I'm just eating something very simple when I'm feeling lazy, like pasta, rice or a bacon sandwich I'll add a load of the stuff. A little bowl of rice with some soy sauce / decent hot-sauce = total win. Also an awesome breakfast.

I enjoy mixing things up with Tabasco and it's also good to add a few drops when cooking for that subtle difference without overpowering everything else. I must say though, that I am a huge fan of pepper, I'll 'put that shit on everything'.

Hell, I even put it on ice cream once. That didn't turn out as I expected but it was a nice experiment.

(And yes, I'm being a dick because you said pasta.)
well for one I'm Canadian, and secondly hot sauce is actually considered a healthy thing to put on food because the spice makes your body work a little harder to digest it and therefore more calories are burned in the process of digesting the food.

Even Alfredo sauce

Okay, maybe I was wrong. Tomato sauce, alfredo sauce and pesto are all good, but anything else is heresy.
To me, anything but alfredo sauce or cheese in general on pasta is heresy.

As for hot sauce, 'tis the tears of angels, the nectar of the gods, and so on.

Put that shit on everything. Put that shit on your keyboard. Put that shit on your assignment papers, instant 1st.

It's (very) hot, but still has a nice flavor in the short period between when you taste it, and when start rolling around on the floor screaming.

I've eaten it on just about anything; Chile, chicken, steak, salami, popcorn, burgers, sunflower seeds.......

I put hot sauce on various things, but not on everything. I guess that means #3 for me.
