I'm addicted to fast food, and McDonald's was a weekly thing, if not more often. But prices now are just crazy, and the quality is just slop. I've not had a McDonald's for over a month and I'm better off for it.

Okay this is a real question. I'm a huge fan of McDonald's's barbecue sauce. Does anyone know what style it is and what to get from a store that tastes like it? I don't like other fast food joints' barbeque sauce nearly as much, and there are so so many styles and flavors of it. Everybody says "original" and mean something different lol. So any guidance from McDonald's fans who also happen to be barbeque sauce aficionados is appreciated.

Look for “Kansas City” style sauce. It’s a tomato-molasses base with lots of vinegar. You can always add some apple cider vinegar to another style of BBQ sauce to increase the tang.

I was under the impression KC was sweeter and what most """normal""" BBQ sauce is, but if it's more vinegar then I'll check it out. Thanks!
