Combine with Kansas City metropolitan area
Why is there a Kansas City, Missouri page, and a Kansas City metropolitan area page?
- They aren't the same thing.

Molasses in Kansas City barbecue sauce
Besides the fact that the description of Arthur Bryant taking over Henry Perry's barbecue stand needs to be rewritten to make it clear that Perry opened his stand after migrating from Memphis in 1921 and that it was Perry's sauce that got molasses added to it, I think I need to take issue with the description of both it and Gates' sauce as containing molasses, let alone more molasses.
Gates' sauce uses brown sugar as a sweetener. (Granted, brown sugar is merely refined white sugar to which molasses has been added back, but it's still not the same as molasses.) And Gates' Original sauce lacks the sweetness of KC Masterpiece, which is heavy on the molasses. Nor did Bryant use molasses in his sauce; the ingredient list on bottles of Bryant's Original sauce list "sugar" among the "seasonings" used. (One unusual ingredient it contains: lard.)
Neither Gates' Original nor Bryant's Original has the cloying sweetness of KC Masterpiece or most of the sauces identified as "Kansas City-style" outside the city - or, for that matter, several of the Kansas City sauces developed in Masterpiece's wake, such as Cowtown. Both companies added sweeter sauces to their product lines after KC Masterpiece became a big national seller. To this day, most better barbecue sauces in the city, such as Q39, don't have the pronounced sweetness of Masterpiece, though they are sweeter than either Bryant's or Gates' original sauces.
Gates', in fact, is noteworthy for its spiciness relative to other "regular" KC sauces: when it introduced a sweeter version, it was labeled Sweet & Mild.
I will alter the passage in the main article accordingly.
As to where I claim authority, check my bona fides. I was born and raised in Kansas City and ate my share of both Gates' and Bryant's Q growing up (I generally prefer Gates). I return home fairly regularly to boot. Marketstel (talk) 03:32, 30 September 2018 (UTC)
in 2014, a white supremacist opened fire outside a Jewish Community Center in a suburb of Kansas City, Mo., killing three people
A spokesman for the A.D.L. said that before Saturday’s shooting the deadliest anti-Semitic attack in recent United States history was in 1985, when a man killed a family of four in Seattle. He had mistakenly thought that they were Jewish. More recently, in 2014, a white supremacist opened fire outside a Jewish Community Center in a suburb of Kansas City, Mo., killing three people.
