A company in California uses millions of small chilies to produce sriracha sauce, causing odor complaints from local residents. The city of Irwindale filed a lawsuit against the manufacturer, We Funk Foods, claiming the chili smell is a public nuisance. Residents reported eye irritation, throat discomfort, and headaches, with some leaving their homes to escape the odor. The company uses a filtration system but refused to install a new one costing $600,000. A judge denied the city's request to halt production until changes are made. A hearing is scheduled for November 22.
