Here's an excerpt from the article:

"A judge is set to decide Thursday whether to grant Irwindale's request to stop production of Sriracha sauce while the company tries to limit odors wafting into the neighborhood.

The decision could have serious ramifications for next years' supplies of Huy Fong Food's three hot sauces: Chili Garlic, Sambal Oelek, and the wildly popular Sriracha "rooster" sauce.

The city of Irwindale sued Huy Fong Foods on Monday, claiming the spicy scent of ground peppers is a public nuisance in violation of the municipal code. The lawsuit came after some nearby residents complained of burning eyes and throats.

The city asked for a temporary restraining order that would stop all operations at the factory immediately as a judge decides whether a preliminary injunction is necessary."

    It was news to me! And the article was dated for yesterday.
    Anyways, the update is that the judge decided to postpone the ruling for another month. The drama continues...
