I ran out like 2 weeks ago and I’ve been unable to find it at any Walmart/stop and shop, so finally I googled and found out production has been halted for months due to a chile pepper shortage? I’m kind of devastated. Has anyone been able to find it in the RI area recently/ where did you find it? Or have any good alternative suggestions? Lol :( but fr

Nah, Sriracha fucked around and found out. They tried to screw over one of their most faithful suppliers and got left out in the cold.

Any asian market will have it and probably for less than chain supermarkets. Sunny Market, V mart, good fortune, etc.

Go buy shark brand Sriracha from good fortune. It’s better anyway

Good Fortune had the bigger bottles of Sriracha for $7.99 when I went there this week

there was a shortage six months ago or so, but I've had no problem finding it recently. Unless this is another new shortage? Say it ain't so.

Trader Joe’s has a sriracha sauce which isn’t quite the same flavor, but pretty similar. I’ve been buying that for a while

Good Fortune or Chinese American Mini Market or V-Mart. Last two are local businesses.

You’re more likely to find them cheaper there than if you went to other grocery stores.

I recommend either getting Yellowbird sriracha on Amazon OR going to Trader Joe’s in providence and getting their sriracha :)

I just got some at the Walmart in north Attleboro yesterday. Check on Walmart.com to see if one near you has them in stock. They only had small bottles. They were so high up and pushed back so I didn’t see them the first time I checked. Aisle A3 next to the Tabasco, top shelf
