Sweet Baby Ray's Honey Chipotle Barbecue Sauce

Honey and chipotle pepper are both tucked into the less-than-2-percent line, after fructose and water. High fructose corn syrup is still ingredient one.

A serving is 37 g, about 2 tablespoons, and the panel counts on that spoon for the math. Calories are 80. Sugar is 17 g, with 16 g added. Sodium is 330 mg.

This is a Ken's Foods brand with a Chicago mailbox. No Canadian bottling line is named. Set beside Original, the new items are honey, a smoked pepper, and onion powder.
