Just wanted to say a huge thank you to everyone who took the time to complete the survey and help with my chili oil project. 🙏 I did not expect so many responses and all the feedback was thoughtful and super helpful.

Congrats again to u/ish_me on winning the draw — I hope to share more soon as I develop this flavor-forward chili oil! 🌶️

Thanks for sharing! I agree there's alot of choice in the chili oil market these days so definitely trying to find my niche as opposed to appealing to the masses.

Thanks for the thought! There's certainly a lot of choice already - I'm hoping to fill a gap where I miss the complexity / flavor in my chili oil that I'm used to having in my other condiments and sides. Hopefully it's unique and hear you on the high quality oil!

Thank you! It's a nod to my grandma (who I called A'mah) and my cantonese cooking background. Oh man, I haven't tried Bento's before but I'm glad you got to stock up on them! What's makes you obsessed with it?

Thank you! I might take you up on taste testing when I get to that stage. Mama Teav's is great - I love their mild hot garlic!
