IDK if it’s been discussed before; the sauce is OK on its own, but only vaguely tastes like the original and has nowhere near the level of heat.

    Go for the green bottle instead. The green stuff with the dragon is so good

    I bought it thinking it might be a good replacement. NOPE, it’s awful. I’m throwing the whole bottle away

    Thanks for the heads up

    Tabasco version is okay. Yellowbird is probably the best compared to the OG.

    Agreed it’s pretty subpar, but the green bottle per the other poster is pretty decent.

    I wonder if anyone makes one with more heat, more garlic, and less sugar than the original.

    I generally like the flavor of the OG, but it’s so sweet it limits its uses for me.

    Get sriraja panich instead. The o.g. better imo

    Really? If it had more heat Id like it more than OG almost

    Is there still a sriracha shortage in most parts of the country? Things seem to be back in full stock at a lot of grocery stores here in CA

    Damn. Wish I saw this a week ago, just broke down and got some. Tastes like crap.

    Nothing beats the OG Sriracha. Even their new version pales in comparison. The new pepper supplier just doesn’t replicate what once was.

  11. I actually like the Trader Joe’s one for cooking with quite a lot. The one I got was really garlicky

    Everyone seems to love it but I’m with you 😂 but I also haven’t been a legitimate fan of any of the true sriracha substitutes so.. your mileage may vary

    My wife likes it better than Huy Fong. I personally don’t really like either one that much. But I do like Trader Joe’s Green Dragon sauce. That stuff is amazing on rice & beans.

  14. That’s TJ’s ketchup with a shot of the habanero sauce.

    trader joe’s is hit or miss on about everything.
