Talk:MacSauce
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I happen to work at a McDonalds, and it always seemed to me that Mac Sauce was a fast-food-ified form of Thousand Island dressing. Am I right? Gus 22:58, 2004 Sep 20 (UTC)

[edit] "Secret Sauce" Revealed!
I used to work at a McDonald's a few years back, so I took it upon myself to read the list of ingredients for a lot of the pre-packaged food and food products they served. I was pretty surprised to learn that the ingredient list for what McDonald's crew call Mac sauce is incredibly similar to the tartar sauce they served on Filet O' Fish. In fact, if memory serves me correctly, there are 3 more ingredients in Mac sauce than tartar sauce, and they appeared near the end of the list. Now because they're at the end of the list, there isn't very large amount of these ingredients in the sauce. This leads me to believe that those ingredients are what makes Mac sauce different in colour (and only slightly different in taste) from tartar sauce. Cappo 07:42, 6 April 2006 (UTC)
[edit] What it REALLY is
The so-called "special" sauce that McDonalds uses on Big Macs is marketed throughout the U.S. (especially the south) as "sandwich spead," Kraft and JFG are two brands. It is nothing more nor less than salad dressing, pickle relish, and chili sauce.
I thought that it was just Ketchup and Mayo mixed together. BigBadUglyBugFacedBabyEatingO'Brian 19:48, 19 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Other food items
McDonalds vary their menu according to the country or region. eg. In Australia, we have the 'Mac Oz' Burger. When I was in New Caledonia I saw the 'McFarmer' burger. Other items to add to the list; McDonald's Cookies, Thickshake.
[edit] Citation Requirement
What are the odds that we can find a reliable 'source' for the existence of the sauce guns and sealed canisters? The fact that I've held them, and could probably get banished from my local McDonald's by taking pictures of the kitchen, probably counts as original research, unfortunately.

[edit] Article title
MacSauce? I've never heard it called that until I found this article. It seems to me that "special sauce" is FAR more commonly used. PubliusFL 04:30, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
