In Thailand, I like to eat Sriracha sauce. The type I get at the supermarket, it's been manufactured in the US by Vietnamese immigrants, and then imported to Thailand, but of course Sriracha (ศรีราชา) is actually a place in Thailand (and the ultimate origin of the sauce, where it was created by _Burmese_ immigrants), so quite how I'm ending up eating American-Thai Burmese sauce via Vietnam in Thailand I'm hoping will give future archeologists food for thought.

- kanwisher 6y agoSriracha sauce in Thailand has nothing in common with the American version beyond name. They don’t remotely taste the same
- kyawzazaw 6y agoSimilar to how Red Bull in Thailand and Red Bull in the west taste completely different?
- wiennat 6y agoRed Bull in Thailand and in the west come from the same origin, Chaleo Yoovidhya, the Red Bull founder. The west Sriracha was developed by a Vietnam immigrant. You can see his recipe as one of many available Sriracha variants at that time.
