A man in Los Angeles was not happy to learn that Texas Pete Hot Sauce isn’t made in the Lone Star State. In fact, he’s so hot under the collar about it that he’s taking the brand’s parent company to court.
As it turns out, T.W. Garner Food Co, — which makes Texas Pete Hot Sauce — is based in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. If you’re not geographically inclined, that’s not anywhere near Texas.
Philip White is the man at the center of this lawsuit, and if he’s going to shell out a cool $3 on a bottle of hot sauce with a cowboy on the label, it damn well better be from Texas.
