This was really good. Thinner than Subways and much darker in color but tasted great considering the calorie/fat content. I will substitue the balsamic vinegar for red wine vinegar next time I make it and perhaps it might reduce the vinegar taste somewhat.I am also going to try some other recipes on this website for this sauce and substitute the new low calorie Karo syrup which might make a thicker sauce while reducing calories.
