Bill and Linda (and everyone else, for that matter),

That sauce is Sriracha, available from Huy Fong foods.  Check out their web
site, at http://www.huyfong.com.  They mostly sell sauces by the case, but
they have a sample pack of five of their sauces and pastes for $7.00 +
shipping.

They're obviously more oriented towards supplying restaurants, as evidenced
by the Chile Paste being "Available in 8 oz., 18 oz., and 8.50 lbs. sizes."
I think it would take me quite a while to go through 8.50 pounds of chile
paste.  But then, one never knows.

In any case, you should also be able to find Sriracha at any Asian market /
grocery store.  Good luck,
