Original Barbeque Sauce, 18 OZ
What You Should Know
You'd spot this bottle in the condiments aisle or on a picnic table at a backyard cookout — an easy go-to for slathering on ribs, burgers, or grilled veggies. It gives a familiar, nostalgic summer-barbecue vibe and promises a smooth, consistent pour; the ingredient list (maltodextrin, guar gum, xanthan gum, and 'natural flavor') points to industrial processing that creates shelf-stability and uniform texture. These are hallmarks of an ultra-processed condiment rather than a minimally processed homemade sauce.
