The result is a product that doesn't look the way it's supposed to, and won't taste the same, either.

I'm not a fan of Tobasco hot sauce personally, but the tabasco brand siracha sauce is awesome.

I must still be getting the older batches because it is still red but it tastes different. I still like it better than the alternate versions that were available when they were out of Huy Fong. The alternate versions were trash. Overly sweet with zero heat.

I never could understand that he only had one farm growing for him. If the crop fails it is on him. Tabasco has peppers grown on different continents for this reason.

I got a bottle of Hoy Fong the other day and it was red, might hold on and try to flip it for millions in a few months.

Yellowbird makes the best sriracha around IMO.

Crystal just started making their own Sriracha and it’s a nice heat with garlic flavor.

You are crazy. That Tabasco is way too sweet. Like adding a tablespoon of sugar to your meal. Nothing and I do mean NOTHING like the original Huy Fong.

And along with too sweet it has almost zero heat. Closer to ketchup than the OG Huy Fong.

Bro you are glazing a hot sauce that for all intents and purposes does not exist anymore. The Tabasco brand siracha is better than what Huy Fong is putting out right now.

And they are both sweet and not that hot.

You are glazing something that never existed. A good sriracha from Tabasco doesn't exist because it is trash sweet sauce one step above the Heinz ketchup sriracha.

This is the sriracha that is being produced by Underwood now. I find it has more of a kick than the original Huy Fong brand.

I also like this one by Kikkoman-it has the most heat of any sriracha I have ever had.
