This week on the Extra Serving Podcast, a product of Nation’s Restaurant News, NRN editors Holly Petre, Sam Oches and Leigh Anne Zinsmeister talked about the new battleground for QSR: sauces. McDonald’s announced its Big Mac sauce would be available on anything and in a dipping cup while Chick-fil-A expanded the retail rollout of its sauces along with a new merchandise line.
