I love Sriracha hot sauce, not just like but love. If I had to guess I think I put it on 75% of my meals, it's just that delicious. It goes so well with just about any flavor profile and has the perfect combination of heat and sweet. Having said that I also dislike potato chips (for soooo many reasons I can't even begin to describe) especially mass produced, vegetable oil soaked, can barely tell it is made of potato type chips. Where am I going with this...those two worlds collided for me today while grocery shopping. Lays is having a contest to decide their next flavor of chip and Sriracha is one option along with Chicken and Waffles, and Cheesy Garlic Bread. I felt compelled to try the Sriracha flavor although I was pretty sure it would underwhelm. Well I was right. I won't get into the texture, shape, consistency of the chip itself but the Sriracha flavor was not as potent or vibrant as I was expecting. I go through about a bottle a week of Sriracha and usually put enough on my food to make it the dominating flavor (which might say something about my cooking). The Sriracha did not come through spicy or sweet and was barely recognizable as the signature sauce I enjoy so much. If, and this is a big if, you felt compelled to try the Sriracha chip go ahead and it and add an extra bottle of the actual hot sauce to your cart.
Have you tried Sriracha? Have you tried the Sriracha flavored Lays? What did you think? What out of the ordinary foods do you put Sriracha on?
