Cholula Chili Crisp Review
Cholula’s chili crisp entry brings serious crunch from three types of seeds and three types of dried chilies. Salt-forward but built for the foods that need it.

Redbloom sells two gut-healthy chili crisps with identical ingredients. One is worth trying. The other isn’t. Here’s the full side-by-side breakdown.
Redbloom Aroma is a gut-healthy chili crisp with excellent oil, layered aromatics, and zero crunch. A GOOD jar for flavor seekers with sensitive stomachs.
Redbloom’s Umami gut-healthy chili crisp has excellent infused oil but chewy bits, no crunch, and no real umami. Full review and tier.
A peanut oil-based chili crisp from South Carolina with Fresno chilies, turbinado sugar, and big peanut chunks. Sweet, salty, and unapologetically Southern.
Umami Hottie’s 3-pack includes Sweet Heat, Original Heat, and Crispy Crunchy chili oil — all built from the same Japanese-inspired base. Here’s how they actually compare.
Umami Hottie Sweet Heat Chili Oil delivers fermented umami, shichimi togarashi, and brown sugar balance in a chewy, layered jar that earns an EXCELLENT tier.
Umami Hottie Original Heat is a paste-like Japanese chili oil with slow-building heat and deep umami. Reviewed and rated GOOD — ramen-first, with real flavor in the oil.
Umami Hottie Crispy Crunchy Chili Oil delivers massive fried garlic and shallot chunks, a sesame-forward finish, and almost no heat. A Japanese-style chili oil that crunches like a chili crisp.
