With the chipotle thread I'm not too confident
Again? They did several months ago but brought it back. I haven't been there in a couple weeks though so I don't know about recently but I have gotten extra hot mustard since it came back to stockpile in my fridge. If they pull that shit again I'll be ready.
The name "Siracha" was never trademarked, only the recipe, so 99% of "Siracha" products are basically just copy cats.
It's a marketing term at this point.
If you want a good siracha dipping Sauce, mix it with honey. Great for chicken and shrimp.

I think that might be a store by store basis. My store still has the Hot mustard so I know they still make it.
This. It's not spicy enough that it needs anything. It's already slightly sweet too.

"Copycats" in the sense that ketchup that isn't Heinz or soy sauce that isn't Kikkoman are copycats...
Sriracha is a ubiquitous recipe in Southeast Asia the same way brown sauce is in the U.K.
I had some "siracha" almonds from blue diamond that didn't taste anything like tyhe sauce. It's become a marketing term to describe spicy food.

As much as like Sriracha they really need to be paring the menu down, not adding even more onto it. Did they remove anything to make way for this? Looking at their menu is tl;dr personified.
Siracha had always tasted weak to me and the Cajun side of my wife's family. Infact the only thing that ever got them was Thai food...
It's better than it sounds. I had a burger once entirely wrapped in kale, and was extremely sceptical but left completely sold, and now a happy kale eater. Granted, this restaurant was built around seasonal, local, organic ingredients and had a much higher cost window to play around with compared to a McDonalds, but it proved the concept itself as a successful possibility.
That one gets a pass because chipotle peppers are not common in the OPs country.

This came up a week ago or so. I can't think of one thing that ketchup enhances.
I think there needs to be a good Roundup of brands. Pete's was less thick but had kind of an alternate taste. Could work better on maybe a grilled chicken meal.

This music is now known as Yacht Rock. My kids are named Sriracha and Kale, though...

All of these sriracha flavored fast food items never actually taste like sriracha.

That's what happens when people who only ate they same 10 things their whole life try something new.
"This'll Turn Our Company Around" Says Increasingly Nervous McDonald's Executive For Seventh Time This Year
thought we were past this fud.
like a year (two?) ago they started to hit a wall with growth in the US. not worldwide (they kept growing everywhere else), just the US. some bloggers made a bigger deal about that than it ever was, and as a result every McD's thread was filled with posts like "too little too late" or "they're just throwing everything against the wall aren't they??"
they introduced all day breakfast (which got the same reaction here as every other thing they had been doing since the lack of growth began) and it turned things around, they kept growing. people still kept going into McD's threads acting like they were dying and everything they were doing was for nothing. recently that started to die off, and yet we still get some people either completely out of the loop coming back in and making these types of posts. could make a good case study for how negative information spreads throughout a forum-going audience and how the positive follow-up information fails to do the same.

I've been off the Sriracha train for so long it's probably feel new again. I'll give it a shot.
(Note: "Sriracha train" was literally two bottles I purchased and then got disinterested in buying more)

I was surprisingly taken with the BBQ signature sandwich with the fried chicken. Might check this out.

I tried the burger, it was pretty alright.
The kale and onions are a decent addition as well

How many here actually realized Sriracha ain't Vietnamese

I like to see them try trademarking this actual name of a real place the sauce came from, that'll take some ball
