Sriracha Shortage Leads to Soaring Prices

Wake Up With Cheddar

One of the country's favorite hot sauces is facing a massive shortage. I take this personally also and bottles are selling for huge prices. Sriracha hot chili sauce in short supply because of a lack of chili peppers caused by farming conditions. Earlier this year, its manufacturer foods warned that its customers had warned it, customers that production had been limited due to a severe shortage with chili, which is a crucial ingredient for the beloved sauce. Now fans are looking to who are looking to get their hands on a bottle and they are trying any way they can. Prices are soaring on Amazon and ebay where a bottle of the sauce is priced from anywhere from $30 to $120. Now, is there a that you would pay top dollar to get? No, there's nothing I would pay that much for. But I will say I have 10 bottles of the stuff. I mix it with a little bit of honey and I dip wings into sri sri you know, I'm not a huge spicy food person but Sriracha, I I don't really count that as a spice is just a way of life. It's like ketchup, you need it on everything. It's better with honey.
