Photos of the Day: Irwindale Delays Decision on Sriracha Plant

A cooling-off period has been called in the fight between Huy Fong Foods and the Southern California city that says its air is too spicy. The Irwindale City Council delayed a decision for two weeks Wednesday night on declaring the Sriracha plant a public nuisance.

The city of Irwindale is suing the maker of Sriracha hot sauce and last week the Los Angeles suburb tentatively voted to declare the bottling plant a public nuisance. Irwindale City Attorney Fred Galante, not seen, says relocating seems extreme and the city only wants to see the smell issue addressed. (AP Photo/Damian Dovarganes)
