"The Decline of America's Sriracha Obsession: Huy Fong's Spicy Blues"

Sriracha lovers are claiming that the iconic Huy Fong Sriracha sauce has lost its heat, prompting comparisons with its rival, Dragon Sauce, produced by Underwood Ranches, Huy Fong's former chili pepper supplier. Huy Fong insists that its recipe hasn't changed, but acknowledges that the flavor and hue can vary from batch to batch due to sourcing fresh chili peppers from different producers. Some fans have switched their allegiance to Dragon Sauce, praising its pungency and flavor, while others remain unconvinced, stating that both sauces are milder than the original Huy Fong Sriracha.

Sriracha Shortage: Prices Skyrocketing to $120 Amidst Elusiveness

A shortage of Sriracha hot sauce has led to inflated prices on e-commerce sites, with sellers on platforms like Amazon and eBay charging as much as $200 for a four-pack of 28-ounce bottles. Huy Fong, the most popular brand of Sriracha, has been dealing with a shortage of chili peppers due to weather conditions affecting the quality of the crop. Limited production has recently resumed, but the company is still facing a limited supply. The shortage has been ongoing for years, and drought conditions have further exacerbated the issue.
