I was hot-sauced as a child. Once. It didn't kill me, and I never said "shit" in front of my mom again.
I've never done it to my son because he doesn't need much punishment, and time out or going to his room works. It's never even crossed my mind. I would probably be upset if I found out a day care provider did it to him though; appropriate punishment/consequences should be discussed prior to the child attending.
