:think: I have three unopened mustard packets from 1977 and a 15 cent McDonalds burger from 1965 I will trade if you are willing to let go of that piece of history.

Just go to the scrap yard and look in old car gloveboxes. You'll find lots of old ketchup packs etc.

Is that supposed to be funny, or are the ZEROS only worth a ketchup packet? Your humor leaves a lot to be desired.

my collection of old KFC bags and promo items that include 2 framed unopened packets are worth alot more than your zero or any sauce as anybody would remember KFC and only a few will know what defcon zero is.

Remember, it's only worth what someone's willing to pay for it.

LOL. Hmmm. Some old useless crap or some good sauce. I wonder which I would choose? You like to upset people that are passionate about their sauces don't you? This isn't the first time... Find a ketchup forum, maybe they will like your brand of humor better over there. You seem to value ketchup more than hot sauce so...

back in the mid 80's I worked at KFC. the only thing I think would be worth buying of KFC is their old hot spicy chicken mix, it was alot hotter than their new stuff nowadays & when I made it (the old mix) I doubled (if not tripled) the packets I put in the tumbler :hell::onfire: that chicken came out of that tumbler a deep red & once cooked it was orange/red & HOT it was funny watching people eat that chicken :mouthonfire::lol:
I miss that recipe, there was something about it that had a great flavor & if you used enough of it, it was hot not insane hot but hot.

I have to say that I am no fan of any collecting and I only have some old kfc cause it was left to me by my uncle.
I see the topic of collecting on many forums and if you collect thats good do it for yourself but when people start posting the good ol "whats it worth " It just grinds me.
I made the remark about defcons zero cause I see people collecting it and you all know what I think about that...

Well you should be careful how you word things because you're sure to upset someone when suggesting Defcon 0 is worth some old crusty ketchup packet.

my point exactly.
that packet was at one time new and fresh and would add ketchup flavor to your food as it was intended to do.
now it is old and crusty and holds no value just like any hot sauce that sits for 30 years.
as of right now defcon 0 is unavailable so I can not comment on how good or bad it is so I may be underestimating its worth in the hotsauce world but I will be buying a bottle when its ready and I am sure at that time I will be expressing my opinion.

I'm pretty sure shayne was being ironic in regards to this post:

at least I think it started that way...and people took it seriously and it's starting to snowball because people are reacting instead of thinking.
Defcon - we know you're good bro. I don't think he was dispariging your line of work. Remember, he was trying to get a vial of it.

I have no disrespect for defcon or his sauces I think there great and I buy them.
I am in line for zero when its out.
I seem to piss off people with ease and I am an assh0l$ but I differ from most assh!@# as I buy alot of sauce and will say what I feel no matter what about them.
whats is important here is that I buy sauce and thats what people like defcon like are people buying sauce .
I say dumb crap all the time but I am serious when I say that buying a sauce and never eating it cause you think its gonna be worth somthing is just stupid.
I eat sauce all the time trying to find somthing that is the best and I hope that zero will deliver .
later

ok, in the middle there i started to think this was an elaborate joke, now i really can't tell. he's either serious or has truly impressive follow-through...
Hmmm... Shayne isn't really known for his jokes, so my guess is he's serious.
