Packets and dipping portions are different

The sauce menu mixes small condiment packets with larger dipping servings. Soy Sauce is listed per 6 g packet; Chili Sauce and Hot Mustard are listed per 7 g packet. Sweet & Sour Sauce and Teriyaki Sauce use a 1.8 oz serving in the current comparison. These are different quantities, so the calorie numbers need their units.

If you use several packets, count each one. If you use only part of a dipping container, the full-serving figure is a reference rather than the exact amount consumed. A sauce photograph cannot establish the volume added to your meal.

Sauce prices and what is included

This guide describes several sauces as available by request or usually included. Those descriptions are preserved on the cards. They should not be converted into a guaranteed $0.00 national price, because included condiments, extra portions and local practices can vary.

Check the order summary or ask the restaurant when requesting extra sauce. A packaged sauce, a dipping serving and sauce already mixed into an entrée are different things. You do not need to add a separate sauce calorie figure again if it is already part of the listed entrée recipe.

Soy Sauce and savory pairings

Soy Sauce adds a savory finish and is commonly used in small amounts. The packet weight matters if you compare sodium or several packets. Review the current ingredient information rather than assuming a savory sauce has no allergens because it is low in calories.

Start by tasting the base and entrée. Rice, noodles and sauced dishes already have different seasoning levels. Adding the same number of packets to every order may produce a different result, so use the amount that gives you the flavor you want.

Chili Sauce, Hot Mustard and heat

Chili Sauce gives a different style of heat from the sharp flavor of Hot Mustard. Both have small packet servings in the standard comparison. If you want a spicy finish, choose the flavor you prefer rather than using the calorie number as a measure of how hot the sauce will taste.

A dish that already has a spicy sauce may need less additional condiment. Add a little, then taste again. When ordering for children or a shared meal, keep extra sauce separate where the restaurant allows it so each person can decide on the amount.

Sweet & Sour and Teriyaki dipping sauces

Sweet & Sour Sauce and Teriyaki Sauce are both shown with a 70-calorie standard dipping serving in the current table. Matching calories do not make the ingredients, sweetness or sodium identical. Choose by flavor and compare the official ingredient information if a particular nutrient matters.

These sauces can be useful with crispy appetizers or grilled chicken, but a separate dipping portion changes the complete meal total. Count the sauce along with the side, entrée and drink. Avoid assigning the larger dipping-serving figure to a tiny packet that has a different weight.

Potsticker Sauce and local options

The menu illustrations include Potsticker Sauce. This guide keeps the image while marking the current recipe and nutrition for verification, because an illustrated condiment is not proof that it is available at every restaurant today. Match any local listing to its actual serving size.

If the restaurant supplies a differently named dipping sauce, do not reuse an old number from the closest-looking picture. Review the current nutrition listing or label. That approach keeps a sauce guide useful without turning historical photographs into unsupported current ingredient claims.

Sauces prices and calories

Read the serving column before adding calories. A standard entrée, a complete meal and a large tray are different quantities. Supplied price estimates can differ between guides and locations.

Frequently asked questions

Are sauce packets and dipping servings the same size?

No. The comparison lists packet weights and a separate 1.8 oz dipping-serving measure. Count the actual amount you use.

Are these current prices for my restaurant?

They are illustrative estimates. Select your restaurant and ordering channel to see the current total, including premium choices and any extra charges.

Does one entrée number cover the full meal?

No. Add the selected base, each entrée, additional sauce, appetizers and drink. Family containers and catering trays have different quantities.

Where should I check ingredients and allergens?

Use the official nutrition and allergen information and ask the restaurant about your specific order. Shared equipment means cross-contact can occur.
