Has anyone in here making posts like this been to Irwindale? It's like moving into the ghetto and complaining about gangs. It's a moslty industrialized city. Less than 1500 people live there. The surrounding cities all have 20,000 +

I don't have to go there to know that if it's a problem you deal with it, if someone lives in the ghetto do you think their thoughts are "oh yeah sure let's live with gangs we all love it"? No, they want something to be done about it. In this situation something can be done, the company can either fix it or get the fuck out.

Also, it's not hot at all.

I love it when some person put some okay hot sauce over the wellbeing of other citizens.

Sigh. Don't move into an industrialized city if you don't want to live near industry.

Dude ... It's an industrial city. Move to Azusa if you want low income housing without the industry. Less people live there in the 2010 census than they did in the 2000 one.

Mimimi people love stuff on the internet so I better call them out on their "hivemind" mentality and how shallow they are


Get a grip guys
OMG people enjoy hot sauces and bacon, who would have thunk

Their vaginas tighten up when they see people liking things.

I'm really sick of hearing about Sriracha. Why is everyone obsessed with it? I enjoy spicy foods a lot, and have several hot sauces and spices. Sriracha is mediocre at best.

Because people desperately wants banners to unite under, especially on the internet.

Also, see: Bacon.

Some Asian hotsauce that the entire internet jerks each other off over.

Fix'd

Spoiler

I'm pushing my anti-Sriracha agenda everywhere.

Weak.

Siracha is overrated.

What's the brown sauce that they have in Pho restaurants?

what do I need to do to become as cool as you guys

 

[Kuramu]

doesn't modify the original flavor of the food u add it to like other vinegar heavy sauces

This is it for me. I love spiciness but seldom used to use hot sauces due to the overpowering vinegar taste. Sriracha came to the rescue.

 

[SpiderJerusalem]

Not even my favorite thing that Huy Fong makes.

And speaking of websites from 1996, the Huy Fong site doesn't look much better.

Ah yea my wife uses that one. I stay away from her because of the smell and then it started getting called smelly cock sauce.

 

[FStop7]

I liked sriacha long before it was a thing on the Internet, am I in the clear?

 

[Lucky Forward]

CBS This Morning ran a story that looked inside the sriracha factory and profiled the owner, a 68-year-old Vietnamese refugee.

"If you don't like my product, what happened with you? Something wrong."

Nope, internet ruined it for everybody. Time to find new brand to love. Don't get too attached, internet will always be lurking over things you love.

 

[Deleted member 1235]

I put siracha on EVERYTHING. People will die over this.

I'm a hot food junky and I've just found out a local place to buy it in amsterdam. I'm getting 10 bottles. I've never had it, but I bet it's really good.

 

[NathanMcMahon]

what do I need to do to become as cool as you guys

form a vagina where your penis is (if you don't already have one.)

then put a small grain of sand inside.

after that wait it out until it irritates your newly formed vagina.

finally go onto an internet forum and complain about something fun and act like it's cool to hate it.

rinse and repeat.

*bonus points if you somehow tie it to hipsterdom.

 

[notworksafe]

Sriracha is a great sauce, not mediocre at all. But it's one of many I keep in my kitchen, and it's not good on everything. So I'm also puzzled why it inspires so much more obsession than any other sauce.

Because internet. See also: Bacon

I dunno, been using it for years and it's very good and has its place in certain foods. But yeah, not good on everything as others claim.

 

[.GqueB.]

what do I need to do to become as cool as you guys

A more refined palate you plebe.

 

[Aesius]

Sriracha in a breakfast burrito is fucking absurdly good.

 

[Leunam]

There's nothing wrong with liking it. Hell, I like it too.

But the way people often go on and on about it can be very obnoxious. Like with hot sauce threads, one guy comes in and posts a picture of Sriracha and says "this is my favorite sauce of all time," then that's cool. But then another guy comes in "this is the best sauce ever, no contest, nothing comes close, /thread" it's a little annoying, and frankly, the over the top enthusiasm comes off as fake and trying too hard. Same goes for bacon.

When it comes to heat in breakfast burritos I prefer some green chile and Valentina. Good stuff. Give it a try if you haven't before!

I like it on pizza too

 

[coldfoot]

Sriracha is OK, but there are far better hot sauces and it doesn't go with everything.
Even Tabasco is better in most of the cases where you'd use Sriracha.

[popular item] isn't even that great, [not as popular item] is a lot better, especially with [obscure food].

it's like there's a formula to their generic shitty responses. That can't be though because they are each a special little snowflake.

sorry, I didn't word that correctly

what I meant was that the same could be said about what he posted except with the roles reversed

 

[ameratsu]

I hate how one brand of srirarcha has become synonymous with the product. There are many brands of sriracha that apparently don't exist.

Tabasco is too vinegary for me.

Suck it up, Irwindale. Take one for the team.

I'm saying...

Tabasco is probably my least favorite hot sauce.

CaJohns Fiery Foods

High River Sauces

Volcanic Peppers

Those are my go-tos right now.

They make some unique sauces with extreme peppers. i.e. Moruga Scorpion with Blood Oranges. Or Scorpion Butch T with cherries and pineapples. The newest world record holder, the Carolina Reaper pepper.

 

[LilWayneSuckz]

I'll stick with Tabasco. My heart goes out to Sriracha lovers

 

[gryz]

there is no best hot sauce, all these different sauces listed are good for different purposes. half the posts in this thread amount to "salt is dumb, pepper is way better"

 

[thefit]

Irwindale is a shithole that smell is the best thing that has happened to the place wtf Irwindale.

 

[Hugstable]

Dat Rooster sauce

 

[DeerMan]

Best Hoisin garlic sauce and terriyaki right here

Tried a teaspoon sized puree sample of this at a local hot sauce festival. This dude is no joke, even after downing milk right after.

 

[NaughtyCalibur]

Regular Tabasco is meh on most things, but I do enjoy the green one (forgot the name).

Sriracha is easily in my Top 5. My #1 favorite is Dragon's Blood.

Has an amazing flavor and is for people like me who love heat (800,000 - 1,000,000 scovilles).

Only problem is that it's way harder to come by than most other sauces. Ordering online is usually your only options unless you're lucky enough to live near a place that sells it.

Would definitely recommend.

Edit: A teaspoon? You're crazy! I'd try a dab on a toothpick

Was just browsing hot sauce. Here's the puree!

Ed's Carolina Reaper Chilies have been HPLC Tested, and they have averaged 1.474,000 on the Scoville Scale (SHU). It's the closest thing to eating fresh Carolina Reaper Chilies.

While an individual Moruga Scorpion Chile may have topped 2 million SHU, the mean is 1.2 Million, and the "claimed" average is 1.4 Million. So technically at 1,474,000 SHU, the Carolina Reaper is consistently hotter on average than the Moruga Scorpion.. Are you ready to meet your maker?

NOTE: There is a controversy on the world’s hottest pepper. According to the Guinness Book Of Records the Carolina Reaper Scorpion is the hottest pepper. According to The Chili Pepper Institute, the Moruga Scorpion is the hottest pepper.

Ingredients: Carolina Reaper Chiles, Vinegar. 2 fl. oz.

As a mexican, I approve this. Consume our superior sauces instead.

I like how the website has an enhanced and a low bandwidth version; both which are hilarious.

[Leunam]

I'd definitely try that caramel sauce.

 

[Lamel]

Tobasco Green over that shitty rooster sauce. Shut it down, judge!

Lol Tobasco Green...

That barely qualifies as hot.
