How Sriracha Sauce Fits Into a Diet
Sriracha is best treated as a spicy condiment that adds heat, garlic flavor, sugar, and sodium in teaspoon or tablespoon portions.
Use sriracha with eggs, rice bowls, noodles, soups, tofu, chicken, seafood, potatoes, or vegetables when you want flavor without adding a creamy sauce.
Brand formulas, chili-garlic sauces, low-sugar versions, mayo blends, and restaurant squeeze bottles can change sugar, sodium, and calories.
