For true Sriracha fans, Urban Outfitters even sells a Sriracha key chain.
2. Deconstructed everything
Sorry Melbourne but no. No no no no no.
Hipsterism has gone too far when your coffee comes deconstructed.
I just...

This trend hit its peak back in May when a writer's rant about having to make her own coffee, separated in three designer science beakers, went viral.
She wrote: "I wanted a coffee. Not a science experiment. I prefer to drink my beverages out of crockery and not beakers.
"Next stage? I'll just get a chopping board with a bunch of actual coffee beans and an upside down hat on it.
"This must stop, dear Melbourne.
"This must stop."
3. Taste the rainbow
In June a Brooklyn bakery reported a four hour wait list of colour wheel-loving foodies hoping to get their hands on its neon rainbow bagels. And that was just the beginning.
Indeed it seemed every food that could be multicoloured was. From acai bowls to bagels, our Instagram feeds became awash with all the colours of the rainbow.
4. Avo smash
This was the year someone decided guacamole just wasn't going to cut it. That "smashing" avocado was far cooler than "mashing" it.
And who would have thought this updated take on a Mexican topping would become such a force that it could single-handedly keep millennials out of the housing market?
5. Freakshakes
1. Take a regular milkshake and stack as many wild ingredients on top of it as possible.
2. Sit and ponder how you will ever eat and drink it.
3. Realise it was never really for your consumption as much as it was your Instagram feed.
As much as we're over the freakshake, we've got a soft spot for Mt Eden bar Scarlett Slimms & Lucky's Bloody Mary. The cocktail takes a savoury approach with a mini burger, fried onion and a big ol' pickle poised atop the jar.
6. Matcha, matcha, matcha
This fine green tea powder can be used to make pasta, pancakes and a green version of Reese's Peanut Butter Cups. Why did it become such a hit? Apparently matcha powder is 10 times as good for you as green tea. Local cafes picked up on it and began serving it in latte form. Take that, green tea.
