We LOVE Chili Crisp! We previously did a review on chili oil which you can watch here: • Chili Oil Taste Test &...
Our next 9 Chili Oils Reviewed - • 9 Unique Chili Oil & C...
And for a next-level chili oil experience - • This Chili Oil INSTANT...
This time around, we wanted to support small business chili crisp brands.
As mentioned in the video, some borderline on chili oil but we wanted to try/support them.
These opinions are from a couple that likes savory and spicy chili crunch or chili oil. We also value versatility since we put hot sauce/chili oil/chili crunch on pretty much everything.
We had a lot of fun giving these a try and look forward to finishing all 8 bottles very soon.

I really liked the Momofuku Chili Crunch. Mostly because it’s hotter and by far the crunchiest.

I love chili crisp and chili oil. For chili oil I make my own salsa macha. Salsa macha Is a lot like chili oil. For chili crisps never really had any brands. So I will definitely have to try these.

SB is the one for us. More an umami topping since the heat isn't that hot, which is perfect for us. Was waiting on your review since you showed in in intro..

I’ve seen chili crisps around but never knew there was a difference between chili oil and crisps. Thanks for the education 👍 surprised to see sze daddy on here lol it’s definitely got more of a sauce texture than a crisp. But it is good regardless. We’ll definitely have to try fly by jing. Loved your chiu chow recommendation.

Well, I bought the Kroger brand as my first attempt, and while I am in love with the flavor, I don't care for the oil. They used canola oil and it... I think it has an odd viscosity. I'm rinsing the spoon in hot water to get the chilli crisp residue off and the oil doesn't seem to want to let go of the spoon. Umm.

Lol I can’t afford all these expensive chili crisps, I got two fly by Jings at Costco for $16 on sale which seems to be a good price and I still was like ‘dang that’s a lot’. I like it but I’m not sure how much better it is than Lao gan ma. I’ll have to buy some and do a comparison. Plus the fly by Jing seems to be about half oil which is kinda lame. The oil itself tastes good but that’s a lot of money for only a half full jar of bits.

@whatsup968 Жыл бұрын

I work at an Asian grocery store and FBJ sauces are one of the things I'm in charge of ordering. Idk how much Costco buys them for (they can buy more at a time than us so they might get a better wholesale discount), but at OUR store that would be us selling them at a loss! So from that perspective you got a great deal and I totally would have leapt at that sale Also my boss was also confused as to what makes the sauce worth the money But people have even been buying the massive $32.99 jars I ordered lol It just suits some people really well I guess

🙄 Jing is just good at marketing and jacking up prices to convey false and unwarranted quality that haven't been verified. Unlike Huy Fong Sriracha, which is Made in USA with ingredients grown in California, Jing's sauce is made entirely in China. She dropped buzz words like "high quality, locally sourced" foods. That only works if we also live in Cheng Du and know how these chili and ingredients are actually grown. Otherwise, it's NOT local and the well-known poisonous quality of Chinese produced foods have been well-documented. The reason these "fly" restaurants she referred to featured such "cheap" prices that customers gathered like flies is because they weren't always above using gutter oil, vegetables, meat, and seafood awashed in chemicals, even cardboard "meat". China's bad food quality is so well-known almost everywhere that during the recent Olympic, warnings against eating food there were given to all athletes while only specifically grown foods from farms with stringent inspections were allowed in. On top of this, a 28 oz bottle of California-made Sriracha is about $5-$6 retail but 3 6oz jars of Fly by Jing sauces direct from manufacturer is $42, EIGHT times more expensive! Kinda ridiculous if you think about it...

@PeterLisaKim Жыл бұрын

Hi there. There's a lot to unpack here but we'd like to chime in. One thing we can agree on is that Fly By Jing is great at marketing. Everything we purchase is emotionally driven and 'buzz words' help customers on their buying journey. Nothing out of the ordinary there. However, in the same way, using words like 'poisonous' isn't fair and although likely unintentional on your part, does harm to the brand and anyone who does business in China. We'd be naive to think that there aren't any cases of health/safety issues in China but Fly By Jing is doubling down by becoming a Certified B Corp (which was revealed to me by a member of their company after contacting them). Which is achieved through strict compliance. As for the price, it doesn't make sense to compare Fly By Jing to Sriracha. Especially if you're comparing 1 bottle of Sriracha vs a 3-pack of Fly By Jing. We know that it sounds like we're being Fly By Jing stans here but we appreciate their efforts in fighting against stereotypes that Chinese foods/products are low quality and must be 'cheap'.
