When Minneapolis donut chef Teresa Fox heard that Huy Fong Foods Inc., maker of Sriracha Asian-style hot sauce, might be forced to shut its factory near Los Angeles, she knew she needed to stock up.
The co-owner of Glam Doll Donuts, a hip bakery popular with a late-night crowd, uses the sweet and spicy chili sauce in the icing for her peanut butter and Sriracha-flavored "Chart Topper" doughnut. To ensure she would have enough on hand, Ms. Fox said she purchased five extra cases of Sriracha, each with a dozen 28-ounce bottles.

Recently, residents living near Huy Fong's new 626,000-square-foot facility, which opened last year in Irwindale, Calif., have complained of noxious fumes. Late last month, the city sued in state court to close down the operation. A judge could decide as soon as Friday whether those claims merit a preliminary injunction, which would halt production at the facility as the case moves forward.

I think, this has been settled.
“Liberal wackos strike again. BTW this stuff is the absolute bomb, excellent on Chinese food. I can literally drink it from the bottle.”
I wouldn’t want to be sitting near you after you did, lol.
Yeh, I love the stuff.
P.S., you’re right. It really is a good sauce.
Spicy, sweet, good. Great on everything!
This is why we have basically been in recession for five years. Liberals flap their gums about wanting jobs for working people, but they always choose their own nutty agenda over letting businesses make money and employ people.
The trinity of flavorful hot sauces.
Sriracha, Cholula, Tapatio.
Pico Pica is good too.
Great story also on the owner: Refugee from Vietnam become Multimillionaire.
I love it on Pizza, use it in spaghetti sauce and bar-B-Que sauce
Ping.
I love this stuff. Better stock up.
Back in the day, it was Tabasco. In the C-Ration era every NCO I knew carried the stuff to make them palatable.
This has nothing to do with liberals....If I lived or worked in the area, and they came in and started production resulting in eye-watering fumes permeating everything surrounding them, I’d want them shut down too.
Make all the stuff you want in your shop...but when it negatively affects me, to the same extent it is affecting people around the plant now, you either fix the problem or leave.
cholula is my favorite of the 3, but tapatio is the value choice
I want a video of that boast........ I don’t believe it
The hearing on the preliminary injunction has been delayed. The chili crushing is over until next summer, which is where all the odors come from. This place is just a few miles from where I live. You can read more in our local paper here:
