The sauce reacts the different taste buds in your mouth, therefore giving you a sweet yet sour sauce.

If you mix sweet and sour together then you're bound to get those tastes. If you mix sugar and white vinegar you get sweet and sour.

Because the sauce is mixed with something sweet and something sour....Like sugar and limes.

its the vinegar in the sauce that gives it that tang,when they say sweet and sour it is not quite worded correctly cos the sour is acidic not citrus.

'Cos it is made of pineapple juice which is highly sweet and vinegar which is sour.
Crisps are Salt &Vinegar at the same time, for the same reason.
Different parts of the tongue pick up on different flavours, salty, sour, sweet, bitter, pungent and astringent.

Taste will win out every time. This, of course, is an oxymoron. Yet, it is true. This flavoring has a very delightful taste to it. Peace and God Bless.
