I was confused until I saw that tiny line at the top. Who the hell is paying 20 bucks for Sriracha. It's like $3.99 where I live lol
No distributors can get me actual rooster sauce right now. I had a palette of it when the shortage started but those days are over and now all I can get is the knock off stuff. It's too vinegary. I sell sushi for context it's not a personal use issue.
No judgements here if it is for personal use. This is a safe space.
Sriracha Panich brand is supposedly the original and it tastes like bad ketchup. Huy Fong does it right.
Who the hell eats that Witz Sushi?
A lot of people. Spicy Tuna, Spicy Mayo, and many other things that are sushi menu staples include it as a main ingredient.
I'm gonna pretend it is personal use, cause that's just impressive.
You're in the US?
I was told this product is made by the farmer that supplied peppers to sriracha; I haven't tried it yet.

same here $3.99 CDN local, but online its like $12.
Amazon really dicks you over a lot of times on the most random products lol... I think it tends towards things that are generally cheap for their weight but idk
We went looking for it in the store, apparently there's still a chili pepper shortage...
Hmmm. I think according to sellers there's an everything shortage of they can sell something cheap for much more than it's worth
Plus with the pepper shortage, how would I be able to make it myself anyway? I can't get the peppers either!
But you can. The real recipe uses red jalapeños from Mexico!
They had distribution problems during the pandemic, then they fucked up by cutting business to farms they used to buy chili from.
I honestly don't think rooster sriracha will survive in a few years.
I think they're selling an entire pallet of jt
