McDonald's dipping sauces are pretty revolting. Tried some of their "hot mustard" and "honey mustard" and both of them were pretty shit, basically high calorie, high carb heavily sweetened mayo. Absolutely revolting.
I have had mayo sauces (Taco Bell, still my shitty cheat-food of choice to be honest) and I have had sweet sauces, and I have had spicy-sweet sauces, but their "hot mustard" was just so riddled with high fructose corn syrup there was not even the smallest hint of the "hot" part of it.
People are so addicted to liquid carbs apparently they like that shit?
Don't get me wrong I like myself some liquid carbs sometimes but the number of chemicals added to that is just..gross.
I can take just a few of those ingredients (even xanthan gum) and create a better sweet-hot sauce for dipping into than that shit.
Sorry for the rant, it's over now. Just pisses me off. From the corporation that used to have the best fries and the best fast food burgers around, but changed because "health reasons", only to try to inject all these excess empty carbs into you that don't even taste good.
The fact that McDonald's isn't even good for protein/fat/carb loading for body building anymore for a few bucks is just sad. Don't get me started on the prices. ahh.
Look, everyone has their shitty foods. Taco Bell's mine, so apparently hot mustard is yours. I'm just so disappointed that the second ingredient on "hot mustard" is high fructose corn syrup, and then the egg yolks that points to it being mayo. And it's just like, "yo, I just want some spicy mustard :("
So I try it and it's just..sweet. Anyone I talk to with a low spice tolerance seems to like it, and that should've tipped me off there.
And when referencing liquid carbs, I'm referencing the high fructose corn syrup. Something that doesn't even need to be in a solid 80% of the things it's in to achieve the consistency or flavor, but they add that to as many things as possible.
For what it's worth, I had my first actual fast food from Dairy Queen not so long ago and it was damn good for fast food. They're just not very close to me.
As someone who has been on a low carb diet, high carb diet and some attempts at carb cycling with solid results, I feel the difference that the consumption of high fructose corn syrup in large amounts adds, and it definitely metabolizes differently. Doesn't help that a small amount of that is greater carbs than equal amounts of sugar.
TL;DR: I have a vendetta against the corporations who slam high fructose corn syrup into everything they make. Sometimes I just want a meal for cheap before/after a workout/acquiescing to someone in my party's whims that isn't going to break my personal allotments of carbs. I can eat breads, I can even eat mass produced buns, but for some reason McDonald's foods just has so much of that shit.
I don't fault or judge you for having a shitty food weakness because anyone who says they don't is lying, deflecting or delusional. I just stand confused because the "hot mustard" was such an unsatisfying experience (as are their fries the past few times I've had them in the last couple years, at least during the dinner rush).
Ya, but then you would bankrupt big pharma and their metabolic disorder and cancer therapies.

I want some heat, dammit!
the hot and honey mustard hardly have any mustard in them.
