There have been a few changes here at the HZOB worth noting. We’re always looking to update & improve the site, so here’s what we’ve done:

1. Now on the sidebar is a new “Product Reviews” section. We occasionally review single products from various companies that we try from time to time. You can now find those reviews there in reverse chronological order, just like with the “Featured Product” section.

2. Also on the sidebar is our new “Homemade Sauce Reviews” section. We have had such a nice response from readers willing to send us bottles of their homemade hot sauce for us or one of our celebrity sauce makers to review.

3. We’ve cut down the number of posts visible in the “Featured Products” and “Recent Posts” sections. Not to fear, those posts at the bottom of the list are still available…but they’re now in the archives and are searchable by category or thru the site search engine.

4. We have expanded our “Sauce Mavens” list by adding a bunch more manufacturers to the list, and there’s more to come soon. Our goal is to have a large list of quality companies from the hot & spicy food industry there for easy access with just a click of your computer’s mouse.

5. Our “Retailers” list will be undergoing some renovation in the next several weeks & months. We’ll be adding a few and subtracting some as well. Our goal is to do a “Featured Retailers” section where we interview some of the very cool people who own the kitschy hot sauce we just love to visit…and spend money in on the stuff we like most.

Lots more to come as well. Please keep checking back to see how things continue to shape up.
