Ultra-Hot Pepper Extracts

Mark of the Beast is a Pepper Extract That is Not for the Faint of Heart

— October 21, 2016 — Lifestyle
While Ashley Foods has a reputation for carefully selecting the hottest peppers from around the world, the company is upping the ante with its new tear-inducing new pepper extract. Like other hot sauces and pepper extracts produced by Ashley Food Company, the ultra-fiery extract is made in hand-measured batches using nothing by the highest-quality natural ingredients.

Mad Dog 357 Mark of the Beast is an HPLC-Certified pepper extract that contains six million Scoville heat units in every drop. The unbelievably spicy flavor is not for the faint of heart and the company warns that the product will likely "leave you begging for mercy." The extract is even packaged in a collectible wooden box that primarily severs as an extra layer of protection rather than a decorative touch.
Trend Themes
1. Extreme Spice Trend - The increasing demand for ultra-fiery pepper extracts indicates a trend towards extreme spice in food products.
2. Collectible Packaging Trend - The use of collectible wooden boxes for pepper extract packaging suggests a trend towards incorporating unique and functional packaging designs in the food industry.
3. Hand-measured Batch Production Trend - The practice of producing pepper extracts in hand-measured batches indicates a trend towards artisanal and small-batch production methods in the condiment industry.
Industry Implications
1. Food and Beverage Industry - The ultra-hot pepper extract trend presents disruptive innovation opportunities for food and beverage companies to develop new, spicier products that cater to consumers seeking intense flavor experiences.
2. Packaging Industry - The collectible wooden box trend provides disruptive innovation opportunities for packaging companies to create unique and protective packaging solutions that enhance the overall product experience.
3. Condiment Industry - The hand-measured batch production trend opens up disruptive innovation opportunities for condiment manufacturers to position their products as artisanal and premium, appealing to consumers who value authenticity and quality.
