City: Odor from Sriracha chili plant a nuisance
http://www.wafb.com/story/23812990/city-odor-from-sriracha-chili-plant-a-nuisance
The city of Irwindale filed a lawsuit in Los Angeles Superior Court Monday asking a judge to stop production at the Huy Fong Foods factory, claiming the chili odor emanating from the plant is a public nuisance.

City officials say residents have been complaining of burning eyes, irritated throats and headaches and that some people have had to leave their house to escape the smell.

    I love sriracha, but I can understand how terrible it would be. If there chili vapors are leaking from the plant, that can cause serious nose ear and eye irritation. :( Delicious sauce, though. I put that stuff on everything.
