Alright. So it seems the big debate here is between Chick-fil-a (CFA) sauce and Polynesian (Poly) Sauce.
Having not tried either on its own (I did have CFA on a spicy chicken for lunch yesterday, but that was the first time i had tried it), I figure I'm in a unique position to offer an unbiased verdict on which sauce is superior. After work today, I went out and bought an 8-piece Chick-fil-a nugget and asked for one of each sauce.
I began with [url=http://imgur.com/K1kMgEe]the Chick-fil-a "sauce"[/url]. Sauce is in quotes there for a reason. In my opinion, this is really more of a spread. It has the consistency of mayonnaise and [url=http://i.imgur.com/8DkUZqm.jpg]clumps when dipped[/url]. Its pasty yellow appearance is not very appetizing which really doesn't matter if you're smearing it inside a sandwich -- its obvious intended usage. It tastes like a spicy, slightly sweet mustard mixed with mayo. Not bad.
Then I went on to the [url=http://imgur.com/kcg1wo9]Polynesian sauce[/url]. This one is [url=http://i.imgur.com/tVB8xBi.jpg]definitely intended to be a dipping sauce[/url]. Look at it... all gooey and... dippy. This shit is [i]perfect[/i] on nuggets! It's a bit similar in taste to sweet and sour sauce, but more tangy than sweet. I like it. Obviously, if you put this on a sandwich it would drip out and ruin your shirt, but as with the CFA sauce, it seems to be better suited for a specific role. The only thing I dont like about this sauce is the color. The CFA sauce's slightly off-yellow could be attributed to the mustard... This one is purely cosmetic and obviously dyed.

After carefully weighing the pros and cons of each sauce, I am left with one very obvious verdict:
Mix dem sumbitches! Seriously. Sweet, tangy, a little bit of spice... not too gooey or clumpy -- just the right consistency to thoroughly coat your nugget and stay where you put it so as not to drip out of your sammich onto your shirt. Perfection. I regret to admit that I didn't get a picture of this delicious concoction because.... I... [url=http://i.imgur.com/NYfAKCW.png]I eated it.[/url]

LOL, Skittles. This post. And the GropeMe quote..... [spoiler]DIES[/spoiler]

Lol! Everything about this post was awesome. Well done, sir.

Did you rinse between use of sauces? Then your science is invalid!
-
Truth. However, I approve of his results. Still.. a pallet cleaning is required.

So what you're really saying is: I WIN! FYI: I put the poly sauce on a sammich all the time. You just have to be a little careful. If it's no good for dipping, then can it really be a valid candidate for best sauce?
-
I just realized all of you people are from a group, which is why I don't know who any of you are. Carry on.
-
Yes, but we are a very active group. And some of us are active in the mains from time to time. Used to be more so, but not as much to talk about lately.

>At first Hey, who the hell you think you is?! *checks join date* Goddammit, you've got me beat by three years. (not my first account)

Froggie and froggert. Your names are tripping me out.
-
Gots' to put that poly sauce on the bread... not the chi-keen. Dat bread helps absorb it a bit so it stays on the sammich better. I need chic-fila now.
