• 550 Aerodrome Grub was

    If you're talking about Mickey D's Big Mac sauce one can come pretty
    close using 1000 Island dressing and Heinz Sweet Relish.
    A couple years ago I was caught hungry in the then quite
    unpleasant D concourse of the Baltimore airport and took
    refuge in a Big Mac. The sauce had sometime in the years
    since I'd had one morphed into a yellowish less sweet
    versiou, maybe a mustochuponnaise sort of arrangement. It
    was no better than the olden stuff.
    It has been ....... more than three years (at least) since I have been
    tucked into a Big Mac - and the sauce at that time was as I said. I have

    I've had the version you encountered, not so
    recently, though.

    noticed that McDuck's menu varies regionally so that you may have indeed experienced a yellowish variation - something I've never experienced. My
    go to, if stuck dining with the Clown is the Bacon McDouble. Bacon covers
    a multitude of sins with their grub.

    Bacon indeed lends its benefit to many things, but
    whether it covers the sin of McCheese I'll question.

    Best aerodrome grub I've ever experienced has been at my local (now
    defunct) Springfield Southwest Airport - where Chuck Lindberg first
    dropped off the airmail pouches. The coffee shop that served the FBO
    workers and general aviation folks was quite nice and drew a lot of its
    trade from "other than airport" patrons. Much like the Star 66 Cafe at
    my local Truck-Em-Up Stop.

    There are decent airport restaurants now. I've eaten at
    ones in Carlsbad and Scottsdale, where GA pilots make a
    special flight in to eat the food. Commercial airports,
    well, the bigger ones often have decent offerings but at
    prices up to double what one sees out on the economy.

    Best in airport food I've found was the 5 Guys I stumbled into at IAD.
    Of course I've not flown as much as even Broom Hilda, let alone MLoo.

    There are or were ten guys (5x2) at IAD. The one
    in the crappier terminal (A) was better.

    Title: Old Dominion Chocolate Pie
    I never figured out dominions and commonwealths and
    things like that.
    E-Z P-Z .... dominion means we own you/are owned by you. Commonwealth means we cooperate to make wealth for us - either physical or spiritual.
    As I said ... .

    Yes. Well. He makes sense much of the time.

    Title: Yaaaaahhhh Hooooooo Aaaaahhhh Hot Sauce
    I have kept some in the ice box for as long as five
    weeks with no ill effects. I can't seem to get it to
    last any longer than that. Apparently the longer it
    sits in the ice box the more of it disappears.
    Could be evaporation. Could be mice.
    Mice have a standard offering in their feeder tray of these little green
    "Tom Cat" brand pellets. They seem to like them fairly well.

    Title: McDonald's Big Mac Sauce
    From: Donahue Show w/Gloria Pitzer

    That was more or less what I recall from
    early samples of the sandwich; it's also
    similar to what they used to put on Mighty Mos

    Title: Creamy Orange French Dressing
    2/3 c Ketchup
    1/2 c Fine chopped onion
    1/2 c Mayonnaise
    1/3 c Red wine vinegar
    1/3 c White sugar
    UDD sez: This is pretty much 1000 Islands Dressing
    without the sweet pickle relish. Feel free to lighten
    up on the sugar.

    The fllowing is supposedly the official version
    of the sauce, but my taste memory tells me less
    depth and no discernible heat.

    Mighty Mo sauce
    categories: condiment, historical
    yield: 2 1/2 c

    1/2 c catsup
    1/4 c chili sauce
    1 1/2 ts A-1 Sauce
    1/2 ts Worcestershire
    2 dr Tabasco
    1/2 c sweet pickle, finely chopped
    1 1/4 c Mayonnaise

    Combine catsup, chili sauce, A-1 sauce, Worcestershire
    sauce and Tabasco.

    Finely chop sweet pickles and add to the sauce mixture.

    Combine the sauce/pickle mixture with mayonnaise,
    stirring until well-blended.
