The grocery stores I shop in put the Siracha under “condiments” or “ethnic”… but plant milks somehow find their way to the dairy case!

I think grocery stores have a spinny wheel like they use in Twister to decide where to put hot sauce…

The only reason I go through the meat department these days is for Sriracha hot sauce. I really wish they'd put it somewhere else

We ought to hold a contest to see who can find the weirdest location for a vegan item!

I agree that looking in unusual parts of a grocery store is important. I've found Tofutti cheese in the luncheon meat section instead of with the regular sliced cheese.

Good points.. many stores don't have, it seems, a dedicated place for such things.. maybe it was a customer requested item that they are carrying on a trial basis. I tend to scope out the entire grocery store at least the first time I go in and see things like this.
