Have you heard Alton Brown talk about adobo sauce?

On a few Good Eats episodes, AB cautions the audience about the adobo sauce in which chipotle peppers are packaged: wear gloves (it could burn your skin); don't eat it. BE CAREFUL!

...am I the only person who thinks adobo makes a good dipping sauce? There is only one brand of chipotle peppers available in my grocery store, so I suppose it's possible that this brand is very weak.

What level of caution do you use when you handle the deadly adobo?
