GGP I don't think the ketchup tastes the same in UAE or Russia for that matter as it does in the states. I heard once that it's b/c they use different sugar. Beet sugar in Europe vs sugar cane in the US. So perhaps they use different sugar in the hot sauce and that changes the taste just slightly?
yeah, ever since i moved to London -- i make my own ketchup :( i hate having to though. i also have to make my own tartar sauce.
i'm such a big sauce person!

i love cheesecake factory. at this point i'll never have to go back to america again.
Although, did you notice that the (taco bell) hot sauce packets don't taste the like back home? why is that?
Good enough reason to find a Caribou coffee place in my neighborhood! BTW the cheesecake at KFC/Pizza Hut is imported frozen from the States, made by a company called Love & Quiches, and you can taste the Philly!
Yipee - soooo exited about this love the cheesecake factory there used to be one here in Dubai but it closed down maybe it wasn't in a good location ??? Did you know that caribou coffee shops sell cheesecake factory cheesecakes only a few flavours but enough to get a fix if you can't wait till 2012 !!
