California Regulators Go After Sriracha

A hot rant from 2013. Never forget what the Left has done.

Pope Francis recently spoke, quite foolishly, of "unfettered capitalism," as if there is any such thing in the world.  A more worthy cynosure of disapprobation is the slide toward unfettered regulation and omni-invasive government spearheaded by presumably well-meaning leftist-fascist-’woke’ nanny-staters.

You know things are getting bad when they come after your hot sauce.  An Asian restaurant without Sriracha is like, what?  A house without a fireplace?  Coffee without caffeine?  A man without balls?

You see, if these food fascists can go after Sriracha on the ground that it is a raw food, then Tabasco sauce, that marvellous Louisiana condiment from Avery Island, that undisputed  king of the hot sauces,  recognized as such by true connoisseurs all across this great land, that sine qua non of fine dining, and the criterion that separates, in point of the prandial, the  men from the candy-mouthed girly-men, and which is also a raw food  — then, I say, Tabasco sauce is in danger, a state of affairs the only appropriate remedy to which would be of the Second Amendment variety, if I may be permitted a bit of holiday hyperbole.

David Tran, founder of Huy Fong Foods, fled communist Vietnam to come to our shores for freedom  and a chance at self-reliance and economic self-determination .  Unfortunately, the successors of commies, the leftists of the Democrat Party, may drive Tran out of California into a friendlier environment.

When they came for the soda, you did nothing because you don't drink the stuff.  When they came for the Sriracha, you did nothing because you didn't know what the hell it was.  But if they come after Tabasco sauce and you do nothing, then you deserve to be shot — figuratively speaking of course.
