Bow Wow Sauce or Wow Wow Sauce is a sauce composed of stock, vinegar, port wine, mustard and pickled walnuts usually served with roast meats. Developed in the Cotswolds village of Painswick for the occasion of a feast with the neighboring village of Stroud in which Painswick revenged itself upon Stroud's accusations of dog sacrifice to a shepherd god by the serving of a pie made of puppies.
Wow wow sauce is often mentioned in the Discworld series by Terry Pratchett as being a favourite condiment of Archchancellor Ridcully of Unseen University. The description and ingredients suggest that it is decidedly different from the Roundworld version.
