Marks & Spencer fans discover dupe Big Mac sauce, as McDonald's lovers flock to buy

There's nothing that foodies go crazier for than a fast food knock-off. After all, while we often enjoy indulging in our favourite takeaway from time to time, it can end up being incredibly unhealthy and quite costly.

So it comes as no surprise whatsoever that fans of McDonald's are currently losing it over a product crowned 'the best' dupe of the highly popular and super sweet Big Mac sauce. It's a staple component of the flagship burger, and many have attempted to imitate it - but non have succeeded like Marks and Spencer.

Praise for the supermarket's Special Burger Sauce began flooding in after a fan took to TikTok to compare two of her top tier condiments. In a video posted to the platform, @dailyracha - or Racha - shared her 'favourite M&S food finds.'

The Mirror reports that among that haul, which also included the brand's Extremely Chocolatey Biscuits and Freshly Squeezed Orange Juice, she praised the apparently beloved sauce - which can be snapped up from Ocado for just £2.10. In the video, she claimed: "The best ever burger sauce - McDonald's Big Mac Sauce dupe."

The viral video, which quickly racked up more than 50,000 likes was soon flooded by fellow foodies sharing their thoughts on the product. One, said: "I'm obsessed with M&S food," while another, added: "The burger sauce is the best."

As for the possibilities of creating an entire Big Mac dupe at home from scratch, complete with the rest of the popular burger's trims and toppings, remains to be seen. However, foodies keen on recreating their own take on the Maccies breakfast are in luck - with one favourite revealing how she has put together her own fakeaway McMuffins.

With the assistance of a £30 Aldi Specialbuy, Bethan Shufflebotham cooked a DIY McMuffin from scratch - which she says beats the real deal. Testing out her Drew and Cole sandwich maker at home, she claimed: "The homemade breakfast was far tastier than McDonalds, and my family loved them.

"I know I’ll be treating myself to these on weekends instead of heading to the fast food restaurant."
