It tastes great on its own and makes an excellent companion to any dish you can imagine. The sauce does have a bit of a kick to it because you can taste the slight burn of the mustard seeds in there at the end, but for me, that just enhances the overall flavor. It’s very tangy and pungent, but just sweet enough to give it that signature honey mustard taste. In terms of flavor, this is definitely more mustard than honey-the taste reminds me a lot of Heinz Honey Mustard, which is my favorite mustard of all time. Popeyes’ Wild Honey Mustard sauce has a pleasant yellow color to it and the consistency is pretty standard-not too thick but not too runny either. It tastes very good on the shrimp, so I would recommend giving it a try if you’re at Popeyes and want something more than just ketchup or mayo with your fried shrimp!Īfter all, if there’s one thing we know for sure about Popeye’s tenders, it’s that they can handle some serious heat! 8. The heat is definitely there, but it has a Tabasco sauce-like taste that makes you think “Ahh! I’m being tortured!” and then “Oh wait, this is actually pretty tasty.” I’m glad they added this sauce option to the menu. I recommend trying it with Popeyes’ chicken tenders or their fries. It’s not too heavy or chunky-you can squeeze it out of its packaging easily, and it’ll spread evenly on whatever you’re dipping into it. It can be used as a spread for sandwiches or as a dip for vegetables. Yep, that sounds like tartar sauce all right.īut what about the taste? Well, it tastes like regular tartar sauce-exactly what you’d expect.
It’s a creamy dipping sauce mixed with dill pickle relish, onion, parsley, and a blend of Louisiana seasonings.
