<div><strong>*Quick Update guys as of last night 1/22/26 at 9pm we got a call from the King County Sheriffs department that our van was located in the White Center area of greater Seattle. We were in Tacoma making hot Sauce at the time and finished as fast as we could to get to the vans location. Arriving in White enter at a dark park or van was parked in the parking lot. I inspected the van and seen that they used a screw driver on the front and back door to get access inside the vehicle, the car radio was missing the interior wall panels were missing, burnt glass pipes in broken pieces, foil, random car parts, used condoms and clothing was scattered all over the car. The carpet inside the van was soaked with gasoline, excited to have the van back but super bummed out to find it in this condition. My drums were still missing, generator &amp; speakers all gone, they even took the bungee cords I used to secure everything. They did leave 6 boxes of hot sauce. We truly appreciate the lady who called the Police she seen the news and recognized our blue van sitting acrosss the street from her house. This is why I still believe in humanity and the power of a solid community. </strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Here's the Back Story.
</div>
<div><br />

</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Last week we were preparing to leave for a Friday early afternoon market, I went down stairs to warm the van up and do a once over to see if we had all our material and product for the market. It took me a minute confused on where I parked my Van I walked up and down the block twice, possible mistaken where I parked I even walked one block over, I then came to the conclusion my Van was towed. We had just got our cargo Van a week prior from Facebook Market place for a great deal. The van did not have plates on it yet due to it not being fully registered. At that moment I assumed it had been towed, a quick google searched revealed by law our van could be towed for not having plates. I called the local tow yard and they did not have the vehicle. I was instructed to then call the police impound, they also did not have the vehicle. At this point I knew our van was stolen.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>My world was turned upside down with this gut punch.</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This business isn’t just a side project. It’s something I’ve been building from the ground up with long hours, early mornings, late nights, and a lot of belief. We put a lot of pride into our hot sauce standing toe to toe with Legacy Hot sauce Brands. Losing the van and everything in it has been emotionally overwhelming and financially devastating. It has completely stalled my ability to produce, deliver, and sell my products.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>I’m not someone who asks for help easily, but right now I truly need it.</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The funds raised will go toward:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>* Replacing stolen equipment and supplies
</div>
<div>* Rebuilding inventory and marketing materials
</div>
<div>* Covering transportation needs so I can get back to work
</div>
<div>* Helping me keep this small business alive and moving forward
</div>
<ul>
<li>Purchasing another business van
</li>
<li>Replacing my Drum set &amp; Hardware/Cymbals
</li>
</ul>
<div><br />
</div>

</div>
<div>Around Seattle im Known as "The Pike Street Drummer" music has always been my passion, bringing people together and allowing them to escape life for a moment is the greatest reward. Music is my contribution to Seattle. Music Notes and Flavor Notes, sidelined by a selfish individual. God Bless them, I prey they find peace and I hope if they try my Hot Sauce they try the "Holy Ghost Pepper " 1st. To everyone who has made it this fare in this Bio I wanna say thank you in advance. When you see "Sheeesh Hot Sauce" outside say hi and when you hear me playing downtown on 1st &amp; Pike or at Left Field Gate at the Mariners Game stop and dance a little for a song or two. Thank You All. Chris Anderson &amp; Zariya Whidbee.

<div>Thank you for taking the time to read my story and for supporting a small business owner trying to get back on their feet after a major setback. Your kindness and support give me hope that I can rebuild and come back stronger.
