National Chicken Wing Day (7/29) is in the rearview mirror, but there’s still reason to celebrate with this variety pack from Melinda’s. Stocked with six sauces made from ingredients including fresh garlic, onion, lime juice, grated parmesan cheese and the best peppers on the planet, this collection contains a good mix of heat and flavor that can make the taste of any wing take off. Get sauced.

“There’s something the world of chicken-slinging restaurants and companies love about July. It’s home to National Fried Chicken Day, National Chicken Tender Day, and National Chicken Wing Day. 

So, it’s a rough month to be a chicken. Still, we’re celebrating the latter of those on July 29. National Chicken Wing Day brings loads and loads of deals on bird arms to restaurants across the country, and you can be the beneficiary of the party. Restaurants like Buffalo Wild Wings, Hooters, and Raising Cane’s are all offering deals.

To help you get the most out of the day, here are the best chicken wing deals you’ll find on National Chicken Wing Day.”

How do we love thine products, Melinda? Let us count the ways. We slather your barbecue sauces on all our favorite mains, add your preserves to our charcuterie boards and drool over every batch of spicy garlic Parmesan wings we make. But our current go-to is the black truffle hot sauce, due to its creamy consistency, subtle-yet-bold kick and umami-laced flavor. A substantial drizzle of the stuff is the easiest way to upgrade your go-to bacon, egg and cheese sandwich.

Hot honey fans, now is your time. “Swicy,” aka a combination of sweet and spicy flavors, is taking over the snack and condiment aisles. You can load up on sriracha honey cashews at CVS, let Amazon deliver a jar of Sweet & Spicy Peanuts to your door, slather your hot dogs in Hot Honey Dijon or toss your wings in Melinda’s Sweet & Spicy Sticky Asian Wing Sauce, just to name a handful of options. To that end, it may be time to level up your cookouts—in Whole Foods’ first-ever condiment trends report, the company noted rising interest in elevated takes on BBQ favorites, like curry ketchup, apple cider vinegar-infused mustard and Thai Krapow (a sweet-meets-spicy Thai chili and basil stir fry sauce).

Hot sauce lovers, buckle up for some bad news: According to Huy Fong Foods, Inc., the manufacturer of the iconic Sriracha hot chili sauce, the company is halting production of its beloved sauces until after Labor Day. Following in the footsteps of other product shortages, including baby formula and tampons, Sriracha is just the latest good with too low inventory to meet demand, and is expected to be difficult to find on shelves this summer.

Melinda’s Black Truffle sauce ranks among Delicious Living’s Best Bite Awards.

Add some spice to your slice with a hot sauce by famed Melinda’s made just for pizza. The mild but undeniably tasty sauce is made with a blend of sweet red peppers, spicy red cayenne peppers, garlic, and tomato that comes together to mimic the taste of the ever-popular crushed red pepper flakes. The draw: no seeds! While the zippy sauce is the perfect accouterment for pizza, you’ll want to stock it as an addition to all of your Italian favorites, from calzones and chicken Parmesan to baked ziti and meatballs.

Habanero peppers aren’t the hottest pepper out there, and while they are spicy, they allow for a more citrus-y, slightly smokey flavor to stick out along with the spicey kick that you may get (via Pepperscale). This doesn’t mean that habanero peppers aren’t spicy, however, because they’ve got quite the kick to them, making them the perfect flavor to liven up a bottle of ketchup.
