Somebody had gone to the trouble of wrapping the Scorned Woman in a thick layer of bubble wrap. Even through all the packaging, however, you can see from the photo that the bottle had broken and the hot sauce had soaked the inside of the bubble wrap.
It would seem that hell hath no fury like a Twitter user scorned by a business that also happens to have a Twitter handle. Accompanying the photo, Brown wrote, “Dear @amazon, thanks for wrapping my hot sauce before you stomped on it 10 times.”
Brown proved himself to be a real connoisseur of hot sauce during his appearance on the popular YouTube show “Hot Ones.” He liked Hot Ones’ own brand of Fiery Chipotle sauce so much he drank it straight from the bottle and took it home with him. Scorned Woman must be just as good — but not so good that Brown was willing to make a special trip to the supermarket for it. In that same “Hot Ones” episode, Brown was clear about his distaste for grocery shopping. He gets depressed over what he sees in other shoppers’ carts. “People buy crap and a lot of it,” Brown told “Hot Ones” host Sean Evans. “I worry about that stuff. … There have been times in grocery stores where I’ve just left my cart and walked out.”
We’re guessing the store employees who had to put away Brown’s abandoned groceries aren’t crying over his spilled hot sauce.
