Kikkoman is actually one of the better sauces made, naturally brewed
with soybeans, wheat and salt as its only ingredients. They also have a
pretty interesting website for foodie browsing:

I think their problem if any is that they were the first highly available
good quality sauce and they became confused with the chun king
range of poorer products.
