Jennifer Wunderlich can’t recall the final time Huy Fong Meals’ Sriracha sauce was in inventory at her office, a New York-based specialty confections and gourmand meals distributor.
It’s been “months and months” since Wunderlich mentioned she’s seen the rooster-adorned, green-capped bottles at Nassau Sweet, the place she works as a buyer help and gross sales specialist. Different distributors mentioned their stock of the purple, garlicky sauce, which has cultivated an ardent reputation, can also be depleted — and so they fear it received’t be returning any time quickly.
