Thank you so much for your support! Patreon:   / otrontheroad   - There are several "official" origin stories of sriracha, one of the world's fastest growing food products. So we went to the town of Si Racha in central Thailand to dig for ourselves, and followed the threads until we unraveled an incredible story that took us back through two revolutions and across an ocean, as we searched for- and found- the real and incredible history of sriracha sauce. - http://www.OTRontheroad.com Please subscribe to our channel!
