I guess there's no telling what will tickle the palate. I'm a huge Tabasco fan, and I love unconventional snacks. But these don't taste to me even remotely like the wonderful sauce they're made from; I didn't find them to have much of a kick at all. Practically bland, in fact. Even with my strong aversion to wasting food, I had to throw out or give away most of the case. Do yourself a favor and find a bag of these locally before taking a chance on 12.
