Rooster vs. Dragon: Trader Joe's has its own Sriracha Sauce



What is this?! What is this sad, unworthy imitation of our favorite tangy, spicy elixir?

Trader Joe's has stocked its sauce shelves with its own version of Sriracha, packaged in a familiar-looking green-tipped bottle, but swapping out the rooster illustration with a fire-breathing dragon. How does the rooster fare in a fight against the dragon? OC Weekly did the taste test: Trader Joe's Now Has Its Own Sriracha.

Dragon sauce? No way. I cannot purchase the TJ version, just on principle. I will not betray the man who turned up the heat. Just look at that face. I will stay true to the rooster. Huy Fong forever!
