I kept seeing sexy Laotian and Hmong vendors keep using fish sauce for papaya salad at the events.
I say U.S. and Thailand. These two are the only countries that have Asian people using it a lot.
I gotta say I got a good view at the Thai lady aka Yasmi look-alike while she making papaya salad.

I bet people only buy from her because of them jugs... not her food
Same lady working on Chicken now...

She's smart - she knows that sex sell.
Honestly, how many of you men would not go to get food from her, even knowing that the food taste bad.
Honestly, I thought it would be Thai or Lao too but it's the Viets that are using it more than any other race...
I used to use it for pepper but I don't anymore. Majority of my meat pepper sauce, I use sweet soy, dark soy, lemon juice, ginger oil, shallot oil and crushed dry pepper. When I used fresh red pepper as a sauce, I'll use fish sauce (shrimp).
