The Sriracha Life

Things I can't get enough of: Cameras. Beer. And Sriracha. I LOVE SRIRACHA. When Rogue brewery released the Sriracha Stout late last year, I was like a kid discovering naked people on the internet for the first time - eyes wide open, mouth agape, and desperate to get my hands on it. (ノ゚0゚)ノ~ But by that time I tried ordering a bottle for myself, they were out of stock. (╯°□°)╯ So you can imagine how excited I am to have found a bottle at a local liquor store!

A few of the Sriracha themed items I currently own: the sauce, the stout, and Sriracha popcorn.

You may also remember, I dressed up as Sriracha for Halloween last year.

See my previous rant about Sriracha here, after which I went out and bought 3 litres of it, just in case...


While we're on the topic of delicious tasting stuff, here are some shots from our meal at Downtown Food last weekend, as part of Big Taste Calgary 2015.

"I put Sriracha on my Sriracha"

Unsettling news: Huy Fong Foods, the makers of the life giving Sriracha Chili Sauce may be forced to temporarily close due to a 'public nuisance' issue (their facility is generating undesirable aromas, according to neighbouring residents). What are we going to do, fellow Srirachans?!! Stockpile? Make our own?! Get Amnesty International involved?!!

I fear in its absence, I am going to careen down a never ending spiral of utter hopelessness and despair, and may turn to dangerous alternate sources on the street to feed my addiction. You know how alcoholics resort to stealing Listerine from the pharmacy when they get that irresistible call from the booze? When (not if) I start getting the Sriracha deficiency induced shakes, I may also resort to desperate measures like licking electrified fences to get my kick... or worse, buying knockoff brand sauces... gaaahhh, it's not going to be pretty.

Fooding - Sriracha
How am I supposed to enjoy Asian Hot Pot without Sriracha as a dipping sauce?!

The strangest timing about this story is that last week, I was jokingly thinking about changing the name of this blog to 2LitresofSriracha, cause I essentially drink it like Coke.

Maybe we can enlist Dennis Rodman to solve this problem with some basketball diplomacy. If the Worm can thaw international relations that are icy, then he should be able to handle conflict that is spicy.
