Rude Mama

Rude Mama Hot Sauce, a Toronto-based brand, offers a vibrant selection of sauces that pay homage to traditional Vietnamese flavors while introducing innovative twists. Their handcrafted, small-batch sauces are vegan, gluten-free, and made from high-quality, natural ingredients, reflecting a commitment to authenticity and health.

Years ago, during a daring adventure to Binh Ba, an island in Central Vietnam, Rude Mama Hot Sauce was born out of pure inspiration and a mouthful of fireworks. The sauce packed some serious heat, but what truly left a lasting impression was the incredible hospitality of the mama who cooked the food. She went above and beyond to cool the spice that set taste buds ablaze, offering everything from water to a piping-hot bowl of broth to tame the fiery beast within.

This obsession with the warmth and hospitality of Southwest Vietnam, where stepping into a rural home felt like becoming part of the family, inspires every bottle of Rude Mama Hot Sauce. It’s a love letter to the grandmas who chase you down to ensure you’re well-fed and the mamas who pull out all the stops to make you feel at home. Rude Mama’s goal is to bring that heartwarming sensation to you, wherever you are—delivering the love, care, and delightful kick of flavor in every bite.
