SPOTTED: Subway Testing New ‘Creamy Sriracha Sauce’?
EDIT 01/04/2012: ‘Sriracha Chicken Melt’ is being tested at select subways for a limited time
This past weekend, the Foodbeast crew stumbled upon the mysterious new “Creamy Sriracha Sauce” sighted at a few Subway locations here in Santa Ana, CA. No official word from Subway yet on if this is a permanent addition available at every Subway, or if they are testing it in select locations only.
Of course, we couldn’t help but order a few sandwiches ourselves to try out the new flavor. It’s SRIRACHA sauce for goodness sake. I ordered a Turkey & Bacon Avocado with Spinach, iceberg lettuce, tomatoes, mustard and the “Creamy Sriracha Sauce.” The latter took on a more subdued color from the original’s bright red, it had a mayo-like consistency and was less sweet and much more spicy. The mayo-ish Sriracha blended exquisitely with the mustard, adding a delightful kick to my so-so Subway sandwich.
Feast your eyes on below:
It’s dirty, I know. Which is why you love it. It’s about time Subway stepped up their game, hopefully joints like Taco Bell, Popeye’s and — dare I say it? — Starbucks follow suit soon. Sriracha spiked Frappucinos? Darling, don’t front, you know you’d try it in a heartbeat.
