People really, really, really like Sriracha. There is, in fact, an entire underground community of Sriracha fanatics, and they’re surprisingly vocal. There are Sriracha fan forums, multiple Sriracha Facebook pages, and online guides devoted to the identification of conterfeit Sriracha products. There is also a soon-to-air Sriracha documentary, funded by a wildly successful Kickstarter campaign. And last month, when a California judge ordered Sriracha producer Huy Fong Foods to halt its operations temporarily , there were outraged cries from Srirachaphiles worldwide. While those die-hard fans wait on tenterhooks to see how things shake out, we delved into their underworld to see what we could find. Here, 10 products that only a chilihead could love.
