Irwindale, California Sues Sriracha


According to RT:
Sriracha hot sauce may be known for burning your taste buds, but one southern California town is also blaming the company behind the popular product for harming its residents.
Residents of Irwindale, CA claim that the odors coming from the Huy Hong Foods factory, where the sauce is made, are causing irritated eyes, throats, and headaches.

A judge will decide whether or not to halt production at the factory on Thursday.
According to the Times, the smell from the factory is so strong that one local family needed to move a birthday party indoors because of it.
I love me some Sriracha, but damn can I imagine living near the factory that produced it could be quite a challenge.
