First impressions
Little Brother Chile Crisp currently sits at A tier on our live tier list with tasting notes: chunky, vegan, garlic. We're finishing our full side-by-side notes — the scores and flavor profile here are from our initial tastings, and the complete review is coming soon.
In the meantime: it's best on eggs, noodles, rice bowls , and you might skip it if you want fiery heat — this leans flavor-first.
