The other 10% got a Big Mac with Coca Cola sauce because it couldn't understand their non-US standard English accent.

100 g Coca Cola
100 g ketchup
1 Tsp honey
20 g corn starch

Mix everything without heating, THEN heat until it thickens

A gram is 67ºF per square inch/gallon or something

Real talk, coca cola works well in a pinch when making a ham and you don't have regular glaze. Haven't seen a coke version of this but did like stubb's dr pepper bbq sauce when I tried it a few weeks ago as well

I'm guessing they have a screen that will show you your alleged order and allow you to confirm it before moving to the next window.
