... Siracha.

At least before the debacle with Underwood Ranch. I unknowingly bought extra before it happened and am close to running out. I'm not sure what to do afterwards but I'm not inclined to support Huy Fong.

I hear Underwood ranch sells siracha made from the same peppers Huy Fong used to buy from them. Might be worth checking out

I want to support them, but I hear it's just not the same. Maybe that could be a good thing, though!

Tabasco Sriracha is not quite the same but decent.

During the huy Fong drought I learned that I actually prefer Tabasco brand Sriracha!

Fix Sriracha is pretty damn good, less sweet, more heat, a touch more fermented funkiness. Downside is it is thinner and more expensive.
