>fad
why would people stop using something they like?

>>4808243
People are only using it cause its LE EPIK and LE INTERNET TOLD ME TO LIKE IT! AND ITS CALLED LE COCK SAUCE XDDDDDDD

There's an infinite amount of better hot sauces out there. This shit is for maximum plebs.

>>4808239
Why are you so mad?

>Not mixing sriracha with ranch and putting it on eggrolls when you're drunk

>>4808251
I think it's good at certain times. Fuck you.

>>4808251
consider how mad a sauce is making you, then question your life

>>4808239
>When will this stupid fucking fad die?
No idea. I'm still waiting for this ketchup bullshit to be over.

>it's popular so it sucks!

Hot sauce fans are the /mu/ of the food world.

I put it on plain white rice.

>>4808259
The difference between this shit and ketchup is you don't see people making comics about how much they love ketchup, wear t-shirts and buy merchandise about ketchup, etc

>>4808273
>The difference between this shit and ketchup is that ketchup tastes like shit and sriracha is fucking delicious
fify

>>4808273

>>4808273
.

>>4808251
Or maybe there are people like me who saw it in an asian restaurant, used it, and loved the shit out of it.

People don't just like things because they're popular you know

>>4808279
sriracha has no flavor its just spicy= bleh

>>4808273
>Letting memetic cancer ruin a type of food for you
Just ignore them, god damn.

>>4808287
Thats...What?

Scared on the foreign languages on the packaging, OP?

>>4808287
It tastes like garlic and sugar. And it's not even spicy. What's wrong with you?

When will newfags get out of /ck/?

>>4808251

>le epik

When will this meme die?

>>4808290
No, it's become a shit tier condiment to some faggot meme shit

>>4808310
Now now, it's not that bad.

>>4808294
> it's not even spicy
Fuck you, you're a retard.
It also explains why you don't understand Sriracha's popularity. It's because you think that everyone wants to eat your pain-inducing burning crap on everything.
Your opinion is invalidated, motherfucker.

>>4808313
I'm betting the spiciest thing you ever stomached was French's yellow mustard.

>>4808313
>sriracha
>pain inducing spicy
U wot

>>4808319
He's saying Sriracha isn't that spicy, bro. He dislikes the "MORE HEAT = MORE BETTER" hot sauces.

>>4808319
>what is reading comprehension

>>4808323
>>4808321
oh, damnit
I misread

>>4808316
The spiciest thing I ever stomached was some secret-recipe hot wing. I don't know what was in it, but it was a hell of a lot spicier than I make my curry.
It's fun as a one-time thing, but I wouldn't eat more than one, there's no point.

>>4808313
How is anything you said even relevant to what I replied to?

>>4808334
You've heard it here folks. Anyone who likes sriracha is now a meme spouting hipster. The only way to cure yourself of this ailment is to scorn sriracha with an unnatural hatred.

>>4808341
Do you own shares in the company? You seem a bit butthurt that there's people out there that dislike it

>>4808349

I don't think he's butthurt about people not liking it. After all, there are people who like and dislike all foods. I think he's annoyed that people think poorly of it simply because it's a trend amongst other people.

I like the kind that comes in the jar and actually has peppers in it

the squirt bottle one is only good in chili

never

>>4808329
bell pepper is sure spicy

>>4808352
That's sambal.

But it's delicious in my pho...

>>4808390
MUH FUH!!!!


that was fun

Cock sweet chili master race reporting in.

I don't see the problem using sriracha

Based Chef John put up a recipe video for it the other day
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vgK3EpXROks

Which brand is the best?

I've read a couple plugs for Shark

>>4808251
You're a retard. It's just gotten more popular in the last 5 years or so.

GOAT

>>4808507

>>4808251

fuck you

a person liking something solely because it is "popular" is just as bad as someone disliking something just because it is "popular"

you have every right not to care for the sauce

but you're fucktarded if you're this butthurt over your skewed perception of the fucking sauce

i'd tell you go to stick your head in an oven but you're probably one of those people who only eat frozen meals that can be microwaved and therefore don't own an oven/don't know how to use one.

>>4808513

bretty good flavor but not spicy enough for me

when's quinky sauce gonna be the next big meme

>>4808507

Close, but no cigar, my friend.

>>4808239
About the same time you stop caring about what others eat. Shocking, I know.

to all the people calling this a fad, how old are you? because they had this at Viet lunch joints when I was in high school in the early 90s. are you 100 years old or something?

Well... Although hearing people say and talk about Sriracha is annoying. Fermented pepper based sauces will not die.

Sorry bro. Sauces are weird thing yo.

>>4808251
I've been eating it for 10 years, grow up

i've noticed that sometimes people who fuck with siracha have no idea about other asian sauces and condiments

like my old housemate had like erry kind of siracha you could think of but then stir fried veggies in five spice

>>4808239

It already has.

>>4808280
I LOLed

>>4808334
Didn't even know it was such a forced meme. (I don't visit leddit or 9fag)
Have known sriracha for around 6 years, pretty much since I moved. Every asian noodle stand here has that shit.
Adds some flavour to that garbage.

I can't get cock sauce in Britain. Is goose sauce as good?

>>4809647
..You can get regular sriracha in any tescos.

>>4809647
Flying Goose has more taste than Huy Fong.

Contains a good smattering of MSG if that's an issue though.

>>4809653
Yeah I've seen the original Thai version in Asda, made by the Sea World Coldstorage co. I've heard that it's hotter & less sweet than the US version, but I wonder how it compares. Anyone tried both? Which is better?

>>4808239
aah yes, sriracha sauce. most fucking overrated shit ever. every douche on 4chan thinks it's like gods second coming or whatever

Has anyone tried the food wishes Shriracha recipe yet?

>>4809679

Is that Chef John's website? First fake cronuts, and now fake sriracha?

Why does flyover land even bother?

>>4809734
>'Fake sriracha'
How do you make it 'fake' when it is literally fermented chili sauce?

>>4809739

>>4809673
Sriracha is like Ranch Dressing for hipsters.

>>4809744

Just curious, what do you think a hipster is? Do they wear shutter shades and listen to a 1st generation ipod while drinking PBR and lining up for those new gourmet cupcakes?

>>4808251
for a second there I thought I was on /v/ again.

>>4809753
the dude wasn't wrong though.

>>4809756

You really think "hipsters" are obsessed with hot sauce?

No.

That's for people who look like progun. Pretty much the complete opposite of a hipster.

>>4808239
>let's all waste time by speculating on something we can't change

I share your frustrations with the current faddish interest in this stuff, but I'm not going to waste any time whinging about it.

>>4809759
perhaps, but sure seems like people say the like sriracha because it's the IN thing to do

>>4809760
They are obsessed with avoiding the popular, and claim the obscure is automatically superior to the "mainstream" by virtue of being unknown.

>>4809759
also that scene in scrubs was awesome

When will this stupid fucking fad die?

>>4809766

By your logic avocados are superior because they're "unknown".

You can't just apply the cultural values of a 22 year old resident of Williamsburg Brooklyn in 2003 to a 30 year old obese fast food manager in 2013 rural meth country. It doesn't quite work out the way you'd expect.

>>4809769
Take care of it yourself?

If I remember correctly they're manufactured in one place only in the US, and it takes 8 years to mature in a barrel.

But let me know when you're about to do it so I can stock up.

>>4809779
>By your logic avocados are superior because they're "unknown".
Correction, by hipster logic.

>>4809779
this reading comprehension...

>>4809784
there are no more hipsters. what will it take for shut ins to grasp this?

Personally I like valentina. Great flavor and moderate heat

>>4808513
mah brutha

>>4808273

The only thing worse than hipsters are virulent peri-psychotic anti-hipsters.

Seek help for your debilitating obsessive personality disorder.

I can't stand putting it on anything other than pho

>>4808334
The Oatmeal also endlessly pimps out Tesla, like he's some kind of wizard. Tesla fans are the worst scientist fanbase on the web besides NDT. It's the easiest way to spot a science fan" rather than an actual scientist. Does that mean we should ignore his accomplishments?

On a subject unrelated to the hate train, anyone else tried this hot sauce yet?

I got a bottle and it seems like it'd make a great wing sauce.

>>4809867
Is that one of those shit where the scoville score is off the scale?

>pic related. My poison of choice.

It tastes like shit to be honest.

I got some chili sauce straight out of Taiwan in my fridge. It's actually got some crunch to it, has seeds, and is hotter/tastier than this shit.

>>4808251
>meme
What? How is this a meme?

>>4809744
“Hipster” is a term co-opted for use as a meaningless pejorative in order to vaguely call someone else’s authenticity into question and, by extension, claim authenticity for yourself.

It serves no conversational function and imparts no information, save for indicating the opinions and preferences of the speaker.

Meanwhile, a market myth has sprung up around the term, as well as a cultural bogeyman consisting of elusive white 20-somethings who wear certain clothes (but no one will agree on what), listen to certain music (no one can agree on this either), and act a certain way (you’ve probably sensed the pattern on your own).

You can’t define what “that kind of behavior or fashion or lifestyle” actually is, nor will you ever be able to. That’s because you don’t use “hipster” to describe an actual group of people, but to describe a fictional stereotype that is an outlet for literally anything that annoys you.

The twist, of course, is that if it weren’t for your own insecurities, nothing that a “hipster” could do or wear would ever affect you emotionally. But you are insecure about your own authenticity - “Do I wear what I wear because I want to? Do I listen to my music because I truly like it? I’m certainly not like those filthy hipsters!” - so you project those feelings.

Suffice it to say, no one self-identifies as a hipster; the term is always applied to an Other, to separate the authentic Us from the inauthentic, “ironic” Them.

tl;dr: if you believe hipsters exist, you are a plebeian.

>>4810280
>...elusive white 20-somethings who wear certain clothes (but no one will agree on what)....

A guy with horn-rimmed Kissinger glasses, an out-of-season scarf, silly oldschool hats, and a plaid overshirt pretty much qualifies. It is a moving target though (e.g. the shift from beanies to fedoras), and there are non-hipster guys who might wear scarves out of season (fashion models, flamboyant gays, gay fashion models). Just as there are non-hipsters who like Sriracha.

>>4810438
>Just as there are non-hipsters who like Sriracha.
Bullshit

>>4810438
>horn rimmed glasses
>keffiyeh
>plaid

Sure, if he wants to be known as 'that fedoran who tries to dress like how he thinks hipsters do, even though that was eight years ago.' It'd be like opening/patronizing a nouvelle cuisine restaurant and feeling smug about it - or when your parents try to use the slang of your generation.

Essentially, what >>4810280 said. You've just latched onto the mid-2000's glasses-keffiyeh-plaid image because for some reason or another that was when the notion of the 'hipster' began to receive wider mainstream attention.

>>4809887

No, its not. It's actually got a nice heat level, maybe a touch below tobasco? But it has a nice flavor that always makes me think hot wings when i use it.

Do hipsters communicate with each other on some type of hipster network?

I was introduced to this sauce like a year ago by my hipster friend. I thought, "Okay, that's nice." Now I am learning that this was a hipster sauce all along.

So wait, I'm supposed to stop liking something just because other people like it?

A (taiwan?) company called bell and flower makes chili paste so spicy and delicious that
A) I suck the chinese market owner's dick to get him to order it for me.
B) Siriacha is now on about the same level as a condiment as an uncooked can of tomato paste.

>>4808513

It's a good flavor enhancer.

>>4810684
Well you better stop liking it.

When will this stupid fucking fad die?

/ck/ is so easy to troll it seems.

>>4809753
/ck/ is a nice board. It's more similar to it than I thought though

Been popular in California as long as I can remember.

>>4808531
Ooh I used way too much of that today. So delicious but painful.

Hot sauce is the only thing that makes my cooking edible.

Siracha isn't my favorite by any means but it is good.
El yucateco tastes great but you bleed out the ass
Louisiana supreme is cheap and good
Franks red hot lasts me two days

>all this bad over a decent brand of hot sauce

I'm done with 4chan, they are always trying to ruin things i love and how is it hipster food?

Things like this make me wonder if I actually like the things I like, or if it's just because of the internet's Viral Marketing.

>>4811661

It isn't hipster food, people on 4chan are just contrarians and it's basically a big game of free-association for things they don't like. 'Ohh, you like black coffee, you must be a hipster because no normal person would drink that bitter, burnt, shit'. 'Ohh, you think women have a right to not be treated like shit and raped constantly, you must be some white knight fascist libtard feminazi'. Don't feed the trolls, man.

>>4811674

>>4811682
stop having opinions that might be unsavory to someone!!!!!

oh god how i hate when people talk about sriracha like it's super out of this world greatness while in reality it's ok.

>>4811682
>blatant shitpost trolling is a good thing

If only they did this for threads like the well done steak n' ketchup with the same OP image.

>>4811685
>>4811690
I'm not talking about this but just in general.

>>4808334

The only thing really offensive about that oatmeal comic is the claim that sriracha is anything close to hot.

I like sriracha on mac and cheese but that's about it. On anything else it's better to just use real chili paste.

However, as far as pussy-fad hot sauces go this stuff is the shit.

>>4811718
well, some people actually say it's hot when it's like ketchup with black pepper

>>4808251

the flavours of irony in this post are hotter than the spiciest sauce in the world

I use Siracha as an ingredient more than I ever use it as a true hot sauce. It's over powering and not even near my to 5 for flavors.

What do you even use hot sauces in, other than marinades? I never got that.

>>4811757
I like them on chips, seafood, sometimes on fruits. I use different hot sauces for each though.
I like this best on seafood but I wouldn't touch it on chips.

>>4808313
Why are you so crass?

>>4811757
for anything and everything?
add some to your pasta sauces, add them to your steaksauces, hell just use it as dip?

>>4811790
On steak? no, on chicken maybe but then again I would prefer a fresh salsa on that instead.

Pasta sauce or soups I'd rather put pic related on adds a bit of spice and has a mellow flavor.

>>4811757
I toss mine in eggs and ramen for the most part.

Soy sauce and hot sauces (I'm always trying something different) are the star ingredients of my kitchen

>>4810280
>Suffice it to say, no one self-identifies as a hipster
And you just invalidated your entire post.

>>4811801
read first, comment later please?
i didn't say "on steak" i said add to your steaksauce. also those were simple examples, you can easily use them for any dish you make, except maybe porridge.
if you don't want to use it then don't, no one is forcing you.

>>4811808
Its stale pasta thats been proven bullshit.

Still fun to read now and then. Sort of like that "WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU FUCKING SAY.." etc etc.

>>4808251
This is the very definition of hipster.

>>4811682
What the fuck are you talking about? Retard.

Having more bans is a good thing.

>>4811682
You must be new here. We used to do this all the time. The only reason people could get away with shit like this is because there are too many people posting.

>>4811682
I don't even know what that site is about other than some anons on 4chan hate it terribly, yet they seem to know a great deal about it....for some reason.

>>4808239
It isn't a fad. It is even in the Official /ck/ Cookbook. Chapter 7 is nothing but ways to use sriracha. Granted, most of the ways include ramen, but beggers can't be choosers.

>>4808301
it as died. its only used "ironically" now.

>hey guize, when will u stop using ketchup, mustard, relish, mayo, aioli, bbq sauce, worcestershire sauce, oyster sauce, soy sauce, etc...

They're so outdated and old, get over them already. It's time to move on, guize.

>>4809749
hipsters are just shitty special snowflake kids and older people who are trying to cling to the trends of youth

>>4813325
If they were "special snowflakes", they wouldn't associate themselves with a group which has traits that they relate to. There is nothing special about that and they know it.

You're just using that phrase as a way to patronize them, m8ee.

>>4813333

>>4808283
Itsuki pls go.

Mayonnaise on mayonnaise is the best.

My bottle of Tapatio is almost gone, so today I bought some Huy Fong Sriracha for the first time.
I figure I'll keep trying the more common red sauces as I learn to doctor my food, and eventually I'll have a taste for this stuff.

>>4808251

I started using sriracha because they had it at my university, I've never really seen anyone on the internet talk about it too much
