The front label of the hot sauce reads: “For Game Day, Brunch & Happy Hour.” The company recommends you pair the sauce with chili, nachos, wings and cocktails, among other iterations. Customers who snagged some of the precious sauce began reselling it online almost immediately, charging anywhere between $50 to $200, The Virginian-Pilot reported.

The appropriately-priced hot sauce will be restocked soon online, and will be on sale over the next month at stores such as Acme, Giant, Food Lion, Martin’s, Safeway, Wegmans and Weis, for a limited time, the company said. Old Bay was originally created in Baltimore as a seasoning mix and has since expanded to include items such as seasoned beers and chips. WTOP afternoon anchors Shawn Anderson and Hillary Howard gave the hot sauce a taste test. Watch their reaction below.
