Kroger's Indian Inspirations tikka masala sauce ranks as the worst among store-bought options, according to a taste test by chef Lei Shishak. Despite having an appealing price, vibrant color, and pleasant aroma, the sauce disappoints in taste and texture. Shishak's criteria included aroma, consistency, flavor, and price, highlighting that while the Kroger sauce is budget-friendly, its lack of flavor and unsettling gelatinous consistency, likely due to the use of cornstarch, render it unpalatable. Customer reviews echo this sentiment, indicating that many find the sauce bland or unpleasant.
