# Spices by Inmates Jail House Hot Sauce Created by Hillsborough Country Jail Dwellers By Bianca | Published 2009-09-10 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jail-house-hot-sauce References: [springwise](http://www.springwise.com/food_beverage/jailhousefire/) & [jailhousefire.org](http://www.jailhousefire.org/) Want to really spice up a dinner party? Then serve up some Jail House Hot Sauce made by inmates! Inmates at the Hillsborough Country Jail not only create the different sauces (which come in 'Original,' 'No Escape' and 'Smoke'), but they also market the Jail House Hot Sauce brand, leveraging their barred existence to create a pretty badass product. With slogans like, "Murder on Your Tastebuds," "It's so Lethal" and "Open at Your Own Risk," how could you not be enticed? Jail House Hot Sauce isn't currently sold in stores, but if you're brave enough to add some inmate-designed zing to your cuisine, you can order them online! ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.3/10 - Popularity: 67% | Activity: 24% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Inmate-made Products:** There is a trend of creating and marketing products made by inmates. - **Authentic and Edgy Branding:** Disruptive innovation opportunity lies in creating brands with provocative slogans and edgy messaging. - **Direct-to-consumer Sales:** A trend of selling products directly to consumers bypassing traditional retail channels. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Food and Beverage:** Using inmate labor to create and market food and beverage products presents disruptive innovation opportunities. - **Prison Industries:** Developing industries within prisons to harness inmate skills and labor can lead to disruptive innovation in various sectors. - **E-commerce:** The trend of selling niche products online opens up disruptive innovation opportunities for unique offerings like inmate-made hot sauce. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Flavorful Gourmet Hot Sauces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/saucy-rebellion-hot-sauces.md) - [American-Style Hot Sauces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mrs-wages.md) - [Beer-Infused Hot Sauces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dive-bar-hot-sauce.md) - [Complimentary Hot Sauce Bars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hot-sauce-bar.md) - [Talk Show Hot Sauces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hot-ones-hot-sauces.md) - [Minimal-Ingredient Hot Sauces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stuzzi.md) - [Automobile Brand Hot Sauces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cayenne-taste-drive.md) - [Fierce Indian Cuisine Sauces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hot-barbeque-sauce-no-9.md) - [Take-Anywhere Hot Sauces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mini-hot-sauce.md)
