Hello group. This site looks great!

I would like to introduce my new sauce, Brain Strain™! It is coming in April, all of the business paperwork is being finalized, and the sauce is being bottled etc. The Canadian TM is just about secured as well.

It is called Brain Strain and it uses special 7-pot peppers. This sauce is:

Ingredients: Peppers, vinegar, molasses, coriander, raisins, salt, white pepper.

Sweet with a KICK and great with BBQ. I believe you will LOVE it.

I look forward to posting back here when we release it. There will be a grand opening with a new website and all in April!

So hot you will STRAIN YOUR BRAIN!™
 
bit slow dude, Brain Strain sauce has been around for 18 months.

How did it taste? I can send you ours so you can compare! One brain strain sauce is not like the other, just like one ghost pepper sauce is not like the other. ;)
 
I think I might start a hot pepper seed business called "The Hippy Seed Company." It's totally fine because I'm in the US. Right?

So your sauce uses regular 7 pot/pod peppers, or "7 pod Brain strain" peppers?

That's a good question to consider. If this sauce is using a trademarked pepper variety, then it would be illegal to sell it without the trademark owner's consent. Basically that's making money off someone else's product, and I'm pretty sure Brain Strain peppers are under legal ownership at the moment.
 
I would say "that's gonna piss Cappy off"

you can not trademark a pepper variety...
 
Cappy is NOT going to be a happy camper!!! He can't log in right now. He has made Brain Strain sauce for a while. Sorry dude but it's a case of wrong product, wrong time.

I am not sure what is going on, IF this is some joke it's not funny!! Obviously since this is just a new member they are trying to yank some chains..good grief!!!! Cappy can sign in but is not allowed to post or edit? Very strange goings on...sorry to butt in but this strikes me as insulting. That's just my opinion!!!
