Sauce and spice lovers in Greater Victoria have felt the heat searching for a familiar green cap and rooster on the bottle in stores.

Victoria resident Celestial Burlow says she hasn’t seen the classic sriracha brand in any store she’s visited in a while.

“I miss it so much, though. I’m just curious if anyone else has been able to find any or knows if it’ll ever come back,” said Burlow in a Facebook post.
