Hey everyone, I ate mexican food today and used more sriracha sauce than normal, like a LOT more and now I don't feel great. Can you use too much sriracha sauce, will it make you sick?

Each person reacts differently...but in general it can burn or numb the mouth, cause heartburn, cause your stomach to cramp and ache or cause problems with the intestines, possibly causing diarrhea. If you happen to have stomach ulcers and ate the sauce, you could end up in severe pain.
These are all normal reactions for a body not used to hot sauce, except the ulcers which need to be treated by a doctor and healed before you eat any more even mild spicy or acidic food.
