graced the world with this thought:


Tabasco is a state in Mexico, so I'd guess the peppers come from that
region.

Actually, I believe that they're grown on Avery Island and the
surrounding salt pillars, at least for the product.

The company's located on Avery Island. That doesn't mean that's where
the pepper originated. I suspect Tabasco peppers originated in that
region of Mexico. It's not necessarily so, just a guess.
