HOME Bargains is selling a dip that shoppers say tastes just like a McDonald’s Sweet Curry sauce dip.
The Hela Spice Ketchup contains ingredients such as tomatoes and several spices, including pepper, paprika and chilli.

It’s being sold at Home Bargains for just 99p.
The makers of the sauce, Hela, said it was “the first flavor on the market in 1963” and is “perfect for all kinds of meat and sausages”.
McDonald’s Sweet Curry sauce meanwhile contains tomato paste, ground coriander and dried onion and garlic.
It’s a popular condiment for McDonald’s fans who use it as a dip for their chips, chicken nuggets and chicken selects.
Other people add it into their burgers too to give them a bit of a tang.
The sauce was spotted by a shopper who posted about it on the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK Facebook group.
She said: “If you like Mcdonald’s Sweet Curry Sauce, try this from Home Bargains. 99p. It tastes just like it.”
Her post proved popular in the group as it received more than 2,000 comments and 1,000 likes.
One poster said: “Need to get to Home Bargains!” and another wrote: “Omg whoever is going grab me six bottles. Best curry sauce ever.”

A 30g serving pot contains 50 calories and you usually get a condiment free with your order at the fast-food chain.
The Hela sauce meanwhile contains 41 calories per 30g serving.
An adult man should consume around 2,500 calories a day while it’s 2,000 for a woman, according to NHS guidelines.
Tesco also sells a 250ml squeezy bottle which costs £1 while Heinz also sells its own curry sauce but it costs a pricier £1.99 at Asda for a 425g bottle.
We’ve asked Home Bargains the size of the curry sauce bottle and will update this article when we hear back.
