Sriracha is a new Pringles flavor and is only available at [Walmart](http://www.walmart.com/ip/Pringles-Sriracha-Asian-Chili-Sauce-Potato-Crisps-5.96-oz/35137210#Item+Description), Kellogg has confirmed to TIME. The product started shipping at the end of February.

The market has already been peppered with sriracha-flavored [vodka](http://newsfeed.time.com/2013/12/03/now-you-can-get-drunk-off-sriracha/) and [candy canes](http://newsfeed.time.com/2013/11/07/swap-out-regular-candy-canes-with-these-sriracha-ones-to-ruin-christmas/), and even inspired a new kind of [Lay’s chip](http://www.seriouseats.com/2013/02/new-sriracha-chips-lays-chicken-and-waffles-garlic-bread.html) and [Subway](http://www.subway.com/menu/product.aspx?CC=USA&LC=ENG&MenuTypeId=1&MenuId=35&ProductId=276) sandwich. In December, food safety regulations prompted fears of a [shortage](http://newsfeed.time.com/2013/12/12/7-foods-in-danger-during-the-sriracha-shortage/), making the condiment even more of an “IT” ingredient, as TIME [wrote](http://business.time.com/2014/01/03/why-spicy-is-the-most-profitable-new-trend-in-food/) in January. The article also noted that changing demographics and consumer tastes have been more receptive to spicy flavors over the last few years:

Indeed, as Quartz [reported](http://qz.com/132738/the-highly-unusual-company-behind-siracha-the-worlds-coolest-hot-sauce/) in Oct. 2013, hot sauce is one of the top 10 fastest growing industries in the U.S., boasting more than $1 billion in global sales.

Perhaps another reason sriracha has become so desirable is because it literally makes its fans happier. From a scientific standpoint, the satisfying, irresistible taste has to do with a molecule in the red chilies called capsaicin, [according to](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U2DJN0gnuI8) the American Chemical Society: “The body responds to capsaicin’s burn by releasing a pain-killing endorphin rush, kind of like the one a jogger feels after a long run.” But will sriracha Pringles make consumers this happy, too?
