The original Sriracha sauce, Huy Fong Sriracha, known for its distinctive rooster bottle and garlicky chili pepper flavor, is facing a supply shortage due to severe weather in Mexico impacting its pepper supply.
Adverse conditions have prevented the red winter jalapeño peppers from ripening properly, causing the company to pause production and shipments until after Labor Day.
This shortage affects only Huy Fong’s sriracha, while other brands remain readily available.
The company has experienced similar supply disruptions in the past, influenced by climate issues and supply chain problems.
