Let Students Choose Their Own Adventure in Flavor

Today’s students aren’t afraid of spicy flavor… They crave it. They’re growing up with global cuisines, spicy sauces, and sweet-meets-heat combinations everywhere.

The challenge is giving students the bold flavor they want while keeping nutrition standards, and especially sodium, in mind.

Texas Pete® Can Help

Texas Pete® Original Hot Sauce contains 115 mg of sodium per teaspoon¹, up to 40% less than Frank's RedHot® Original²

Texas Pete® Original Hot Sauce contains 115 mg of sodium per teaspoon¹, up to 40% less than Frank’s RedHot® Original²:

  • Texas Pete® Original: 115 mg
  • Frank’s RedHot® Original: 190 mg

That’s 75 mg less than Frank’s RedHot® so you can use your sodium credits elsewhere!

Born in a Restaurant in 1929

Texas Pete® started in a restaurant in Winston-Salem, NC, in 1929, and that same scratch-made, chef-driven spirit still shapes every bottle we make today.

More Fun Flavors That Students Love

Texas Pete® is America’s number one brand of portion control hot sauce3. We offer five hot sauce flavors in convenient 7-gram portion-control packets.

From pizza and chicken sandwiches to tacos, burritos, breakfast and bowls, PCs let students personalize the foods already on your menu.

That’s especially relevant as young diners become increasingly adventurous. The School Nutrition Association has identified ‘swicy’ flavors and globally inspired foods among the trends influencing today’s students4.

Even more flavors are available in ½ gal. and gallon jugs for back-of-house, or in bottles for tables and condiment stations. To help keep your tables organized, there is even a Texas Pete® Caddy Program we are happy to offer to K-12.
