Texas Pete Hot Sauce for the troops

The Airborne Angel Cadets of Texas would like to thank T. W. Garner Food Company for their generous donation of Texas Pete Hot Sauce for our military care packages. The hot sauce packets will be a great addition to our care packages for U.S. troops serving in Afghanistan.

As troops are increasingly relying on MRE's, the Texas Pete Hot Sauce will add some welcome flavor to their meals. Below are some interesting comments from other websites related to hot sauce for the troops:

"If I got cigars, hot sauce, and baby wipes in my care packages, I was a happy man"

"if he is out in the boonies then add hot sauce to your package it adds much needed flavor to the mre's"

"If someone got to the rear they were on orders to bring out whatever bottled condiments they could grab from the mess hall. Ketchup, mustard, steak sauce, hot sauce, it didn't matter, just something to change the flavor"

"veggie omelet. No amount of hot sauce can save that MRE"

"The best way to enjoy a MRE is with lots of hot sauce"

"Hot sauce is a big-time favorite treat for many troops"

"hot sauce. Makes life easy out in the field"

"hot sauce is my son's favorite but anything to change flavors"

"Condiments are not standard issue, so the troops ask for mustard and hot sauce in their care packages – it adds a bit more flavor to the same dinner menu, month after month."
