12 Gifts For The Sriracha Addict
By Michael Koh
Someone in your life (of yourself) douses their food with this bright-red hot sauce made from red chili peppers, vinegar, garlic, salt, sugar, amongst a couple of other ingredients. It’s hard-to-miss, really. Bright green cap, bright red body, super versatile (trust me, I put it on almost everything, just like Tabasco sauce).
Show them how much you care about them and their palate by getting them a gift, in the spirit of Christmas, also decked out in green and red. May the holidays be hot, sweaty and spicy!
1. Sriracha Hot Chili Sauce, 28-Ounce Bottles
That’s right. 28-ounce bottles. They will run out of these babies in 6 months and they will thank you for it.
2. Sriracha T-Shirt
Wait, are you serious? Hell, yeah I’m serious. Only a serious Sriracha fan would understand how great this shirt would be. Let me tell you. Let. Me. Tell. You. You look hella spicy in that shirt.
3. The Sriracha Cookbook: 50 “Rooster Sauce” Recipes That Pack A Punch
For a Sriracha lover, this is a crucial document. How else can they cook up a Sriracha-flavored shrimp scampi to perfection?
4. Sriracha Running Socks
Yes, now, your feet can be warm, just like your tongue after a sweet Sriracha session. These smart folks basically combined the two things that you love — socks and Sriracha.
5. Sriracha Chili Sauce, Individual Packets
Don’t carry Sriracha bottles anymore. Put these suckers in your pocket or purse and you’re good to go.
6. Devil Inside Dark Chocolate Sriracha Candy Bar
Whoa, whoa, whoa. Sriracha and chocolate? If it tastes anything like Mexican spicy chocolate, sign me up for twenty.
7. J&D’s Sriracha Flavored Jerky
Who doesn’t like beef jerky? With some Sriracha smoked into this strip of dried beef? Talk about heaven. I’m sure whoever you get this for will love you for it.
8. Sriracha Lip Balm
Aww yiss. You feel that tingle? Yeah, I’m talking about on your lips. It’s the Sriacha doing a number on you. Don’t you go violently kissing anyone now!
9. Hapi Snacks – Spicy Sriracha Peas – Chili Garlic Coated Green Peas
You know Wasabi Peas, but did you know they made Sriracha Peas? Neither did I. Present this gift to anyone of your choosing and dare them, if they are a hot sauce fiend, to gobble this treat up like the plebe they are.
10. Lay’s Sriracha Flavored Potato Chips
I’ve considered putting Sriracha on potato chips before, you know, as a dip, but the problem was that I was always running low on Sriracha. Now, to prevent that, Lays held a contest for a new flavor — and this little baby was born. I’ve never had it, but a very close source claims that it is delicious.
11. Sriracha Dusted Milk & White Covered Pretzels
I’m honestly not sure how this will taste, especially since it’s Sriracha powder, something, which I’m assuming is 10x hotter than the regular form, because I’ve learned that hot stuff in dried form is usually concentrated.
12. Sriracha Candy Canes
This is the Hail Mary. If you get this right, they are going to love you for this. If not, say it’s a gag gift. Peppermint, Sriracha, what can possibly go wrong?
