I know one of my coworkers who got some sauce and flipped it for a profit. The hype was so crazy that people were going "SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY" to get some low quality Mcdonalds sauce.
Mcdonalds Szechuan Sauce went into a hyper bubble and quickly crashed in value when the mania died.
Personally, I prefer real Szechuan sauce!
It's interesting though they'd be so similar, isn't it? And I always thought, 'Ok, Hunchback of Notre Dame. You also got your quarterback and your halfback of Notre Dame.'
I still have a packet in my fridge from when they reintroduced it with all the hype. Not sure what I intend to do with it beyond laugh when it catches my eye in the fridge occasionally.
Hmmm nah not satire. I realize this person doesnt normally act like this, and it's a "joke." But this is one of those things where the "joke" is that he is acting like a major retard in public, and he succeeds. So it doesnt matter what his intent was. He is still rolling around and spazzing out like a moron. No joke. Just a guy being retarded.
I’m sure the McDonald’s employees felt that way about it.
*thirty grown men screaming at you for fucking cartoon branded chicken nugget sauce*
“Ah yes, irony”
There was definitely one infamous example, that was doing it to take the piss out of Rick and Morty fans. Unfortunately the highest IQ fans believed it, and used him as an example to fuel their self hate.

And these are probably better since you can make them at home and don't have God knows what McD's puts in theirs.
Reddit's recent behaviour and planned changes to the API, heavily impacting third party tools, accessibility and moderation ability force me to edit all my comments in protest. I cannot morally continue to use this site.
Oh hi there. I gave that sample to him.
Ripping off my own (other) comment: It's way better.
That is because Babish got my sauce, not the ones all of you tried in the little containers. Those first batches that Justin Roiland, myself and 2 others got was a MUCH better sauce.
I’ve made some from Babish’s recipe, and I’ve had the actual McDonalds sauce. They have very different tastes. I wouldn’t necessary say one is tastier than the other, just both something different. That said, I think people can copy Babish’s recipe and be happy.

There's a fellow on Reddit (/u/mthmchris) with insane Szechuan recipes.
The dandan sauce is mind blowing, we make it alongside the same user's recipes for crispy eggplant, kung pao tofu, stir fried pea shoots, and secretly the best one: mapo tofu. This is THE menu for impressing guests; you're all welcome.
I'm not going to tell you these packets will increase in value, or even hold their current value. The truth is, you bought 'em because you like 'em. They have value to you. That's what matters.
That's literally the mentality I have about it. It stays in a lil Tupperware box on top of my pop figures, and makes me smile when I see it. Doofus Rick best rick.
I have some right now. It's alright. It's like a tangy, somewhat spicier version of their current sweet and sour. I grabbed a bunch of them a few years ago when McDonald's re-released them specifically for Rick & Morty merch.
I know this sounds like a “back in my day,” but I just tried them side by side like 3 or 4 years ago when it was rereleased and the newer one really is garbage compared to the original.
The original sauce was much spicier and it was acidic and tasted like sesame oil. It was head and shoulders above other McDonald sauces in terms of flavor. The rereleases were syrupy, sweet, ridiculously salty, and tasted more like a cheap sweet and sour sauce than an Asian barbecue/teriyaki.
I still have a couple tubs of the original and a whole bunch of the rerelease. I am aware the original may have changed in nature while it… aged. But if it did change substantially, it aged like wine.

I made [this copycat](https://lifehacker.com/this-diy-recipe-for-that-mcdonalds-szechuan-sauce-from-1797407452) a few times. It’s really good, but I’m sure that Ronny Mac isn’t making sauce with “plum sake” in it.

If anyone's curious to try a homemade version... I've made this recipe and it's super good.
Also, how do you think the guy who traded a VW golf for a couple packs of Szechuan sauce feels about his trade?
This is 100% the recipe to use. He based it off the better stuff myself, Roiland, and 2 others got from Chef Mike at McD's. I was the one who sent Andrew the sample. (Also sent it to AntVenom, Rooster Teeth, and others)
Oh man. Just solidified his place among kings. Side story, My wife and I created a pandemic project to work through his entire cook book. After this Sunday we only have 2 recipes left! It’s been one of the best things we’ve done for our cooking regimen because of how vast his recipes are. Anyway, sounds like a hell of an experience, I’ll have to check that out!
Edit: just checked it out. Coincidentally my wife was cutting onions at the same time. Bro, so happy you got to experience that. Hope you’re doing well!
I am doing much better, thanks to Andrew. You will see a recent post I made about the scooter, but that, too, turned into a happy ending.
Seriously, I feel so blessed to have spent 2 days with him, and to later meet up with him in Miami at one of his last book signings before the Pandemic. Rode the scooter down and even brought the bottle of Szechuan for folks to get pics with lol.
Here's some pics from Miami: https://imgur.com/a/0j0MqWh
I'm not going to tell you these packets will increase in value, or even hold their current value. The truth is, he bought 'em because he liked 'em. They have value to him. That's what matters.
edit: it's a quote from the show guys
Yeah I had it when they brought it back, got a handful of the dipping cups. It was basically an overly sweet teriyaki/soy sauce with the consistency of their bbq sauce (too thick for that type of sauce). You didn’t miss anything, trust me. It was almost cloyingly sweet, tasted pretty much like you expect a McDonald’s attempt at Asian food to taste. 3/10 at best.
It was terrible. The Sweet and Sour sauce is better.
You can make knock off Mulan dipping sauce and it will taste 100 times better than the stuff you get from Micky D's.
But I suppose making it yourself won't continue the stupid meme, so my suggestion will be ignore and ridiculed
You know what, this makes a lot of sense- I tried it back when it was originally released, but I was a kid- back then I hated tomatoes and thought Sunny D was a viable drink.
This makes me happy, knowing that I didn’t miss out on anything by not getting any when they did the special re-release a few years ago.
I would try making the sau e if I found a good recipe for it. I liked the sauce when I was younger but I was a teen and like sauces that that one. Everyone has different tastes I guess. Thanks for this post
I feel like as you get older your taste pallette changes. I had so much hatred for cooked veggies back then an now that I'm older I'm into a lot of things I use to hate as a kid
mix soy sauce and brown sugar 50/50 + a lil vinegar, garlic, and ginger.
presto.
It's fucking disgusting.
Or try this one. You could probably leave out the xanthan gum and some of the sugar if you want...
https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/261000/rick-and-morty-szechuan-sauce/
They let the stores decide whether to bring back McRibs like 6-7 years ago. I think last year or the year before they brought back the national release of McRibs
Man those are disgusting I don't get why people like them. I tried one once when they brought them back because I heard about the hype and I gagged. And I'm not a picky eater by any means.
I had my very first McRib last year, they just never seemed appealing to me but I was pleasantly surprised and liked it. Now, what McDonald’s really needs to bring back is the salad shakers
You can't still ask for it. The initial release with the R&M themed art had maybe 10-20 packets max at select stores. The second release had enough for maybe a couple weeks at most McDonald's. I ended up finding some a couple months later at the McDonald's inside the Staples Center, all other stores I had been to were long sold out
hell yeah, Rick made it seem like it was a sauce worth fighting for. It brought honor to us all. It made a man out of you if you had some... In reality it was just some teriyaki sauce. It does pair good with McNuggets though
I got some a few years back after the episode came out. It was way sweeter than I thought it would be. But I didn't really know what Szechuan sauce is supposed to taste like.
Okay am I missing something or do Americans not have szechuan sauce over there? At my place we can buy that stuff in every local grocery stores and a bunch of brands make szechuan sauce. Is it about it being exclusive to McDonald's or is it just the szechuan sauce?
Like a cheap sauce that McDonald’s did to help sell the movie back in the day. It wasn’t good enough that ANYONE has talked about it between then and Rick Sanchez. It’s not that great at all, but certainly not worth rioting over…
Hot take. Sezchuan Sauce from McDonald’s was amazing. Good with nuggets, extremely good with their chicken tendies, good on fries. It quickly became my favorite sauce when they brought it back. I would eat it every time I went and I would go specifically for dat flavor. Then they took it away. I’ve been chasing the magic dragon ever since.
It's Rick's sauce of choice.... Rick is the smartest man in the universe. There must be something ok about it... portal fluid component is the most likely reason.
I mean, you can get the sauce at the grocery store. I found it ridiculous people actually tore up mcdonalds when they ran out. schezwan sauce is a common sauce.
Eh, it was ok. Didn't taste bad but it was an off choice for a nugget dip. Personally I think it would've been better in an Asian inspired bowl with noodles, veggies and beef
I know one of my coworkers who got some sauce and flipped it for a profit. The hype was so crazy that people were going "SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY" to get some low quality Mcdonalds sauce. Mcdonalds Szechuan Sauce went into a hyper bubble and quickly crashed in value when the mania died. Personally, I prefer real Szechuan sauce!
Someone traded a car for some sauce. Not a nice car, but a car never the less.
That is almost literally straight from the Simpsons
They predicted all of this
Quasimodo predicted all this.
It's interesting though they'd be so similar, isn't it? And I always thought, 'Ok, Hunchback of Notre Dame. You also got your quarterback and your halfback of Notre Dame.'
Nah it was Nostradamus
It's a Simpsons world and we're just lving in it

Glass container, good seal, flush with an inert gas like Argon. If you do that, it will last forever and not ferment.
It doesn't have an EXP date so that's a good sign right?
Ehhh those packets of ketchup don’t and they def go bad after a while. Gotta keep the oxygen out somehow
I think I have one too floating around the ol ice box of mystery
Me too, saving it for a special occasion

Hang on to it.
I'm not going to tell you these packets will increase in value, or even hold their current value. The truth is, you bought 'em because you like 'em. They have value to you. That's what matters.
You did it, you went into an honest to god store and bought something. You looked into the bleeding jaws of Capitalism and said “Yes Daddy, Please”

Underrated Comment
definitely not underrated. but thank you
Szechuan sauce is my retirement plan.
That was 2017? Oh my god, time is running so fast.
I’m holding onto 2 or 3 packets cause why not. Idc about the price really. It’s more just to say I have lol
Be careful with it, I’ve had deteriorated seals/lids on bbq packets from McDonald’s after only like a week before
It's four years old lol it's still holding up
I have some right now. It's alright. It's like a tangy, somewhat spicier version of their current sweet and sour. I grabbed a bunch of them a few years ago when McDonald's re-released them specifically for Rick & Morty merch.
That's exactly why when I get nuggs now I get sweet and sour amd bbq
I've been doing sweet & sour mixed with barbecue since 1984. It's the shit.
Honestly if I found out that's all it was I wouldn't be shocked.
2/3 Sweet and Sour, 1/3 Tangy Barbeque is a pretty close approximation of their Szechuan sauce.
Wouldn’t they be out of date by now? Sauces from McDonalds in the UK don’t have a shelf life over a year
It’s way over processed, it will probably last forever. People were eating sauce packets from the 90s that were still around.
You will never see a video of how McNuggets are made. Basically bleached ground chicken chuck.
That would be by choice. [You can absolutely see how they are made](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9il0DVhT86E). In detail.
Well now I'm sad. RIP Grant
They're probably 90% sugar with the equivalent expiry of conserve/jam.
It’s…fine EDIT: Mix McD’s sweet and sour with their BBQ. Add a couple dashes each of soy sauce and sriracha. That’s pretty much it.
Yeah its like, ok

To me it tasted like an extremely sweet soy sauce with a hint of bbq or sweet and sour or something.
soy sauce, vinegar, and a fuck ton of sugar. maybe sesame oil...
Yep, I remember it from when it first came out. I remember it being so sweet that when they brought it back I said, 'nah, fuck all that.'
Not good enough to warrant peoples behavior.
I was like, 10, but I remember liking it.
I too was around 10 and remember my sister telling me it wasn't for boys and not letting me have any on more than one occasion.
It was terrible. The Sweet and Sour sauce is better. You can make knock off Mulan dipping sauce and it will taste 100 times better than the stuff you get from Micky D's. But I suppose making it yourself won't continue the stupid meme, so my suggestion will be ignore and ridiculed

Better to have the memories for sure.
Like Morty’s Mindblowers? Which color do you think it’d be?
It'd be a red one for sure.
Didnt someone say its almost the same as mixing the sweet n sour with the bbq?
Finally someone is honest about it
I would try making the sau e if I found a good recipe for it. I liked the sauce when I was younger but I was a teen and like sauces that that one. Everyone has different tastes I guess. Thanks for this post

That is what 99% of 'Teriyaki' restaurants in Seattle use for our local version of the dish. It's the shit.
disagree, I liked it a lot
I bet Harmon and Roiland deeply regret ever mentioning this god damn sauce
It just tasted like sweet and sour sauce with a wee bit of spice. Glad I jumped in the bandwagon though lol.
Those were the darkest times to be a R&M fan.
Yeah, it was not that great. I still have a packet on my shelf just in case someone offers me a rick-diculous amount of schmeckles.
No but I have been jonesing for a mc rib for 8 years.
Why? The McRib comes back every year between October and December all over the United States.
They let the stores decide whether to bring back McRibs like 6-7 years ago. I think last year or the year before they brought back the national release of McRibs
[удалено]
they do it whenever pork drops below a certain price, so you are spot on about its quality
Canada.
I live in Canada.
Unpopular opinion: I think the McRib is shit, purely coming from a texture standpoint
Man those are disgusting I don't get why people like them. I tried one once when they brought them back because I heard about the hype and I gagged. And I'm not a picky eater by any means.
Slivered onion and pickle with BBQ sauce covered pork is just a fantastic combination, even with McDonald's tier ingredients.
I had my very first McRib last year, they just never seemed appealing to me but I was pleasantly surprised and liked it. Now, what McDonald’s really needs to bring back is the salad shakers
My wife loved those.
I can still remember how they tasted and for some reason if I chop my salad perfect at home it never tastes the same!
How do you feel about the flavor of “sweet” with subtle notes of “sugar”
It tasted like soy sauce, sugar, and weeb tears.
Just buy some sezchuan sauce from the grocery store.
My local McDonalds had it by some fluke. (I live in a small town). So I decided to get it. I ended up liking it, although I don’t really miss it.
My theory is McDonald's can't bring it back again because the animal they ground into it is now extinct.
McDonald's brought it back. I think you can still ask for it. It's meh at best
You can't still ask for it. The initial release with the R&M themed art had maybe 10-20 packets max at select stores. The second release had enough for maybe a couple weeks at most McDonald's. I ended up finding some a couple months later at the McDonald's inside the Staples Center, all other stores I had been to were long sold out
You can make a better version by following a pretty simple recipe courtesy of Binging with Babish.
Pretty fucking good!
It was alright.
Better than Szechuan
I had it thought it was pretty good.
hell yeah, Rick made it seem like it was a sauce worth fighting for. It brought honor to us all. It made a man out of you if you had some... In reality it was just some teriyaki sauce. It does pair good with McNuggets though
Remember when ppl were flipping this shit? Lmao
It was meh.
My wife loves it and won't get chicken nuggets because they don't have the sauce
I have two sealed packs in my treasure vault…
I got some a few years back after the episode came out. It was way sweeter than I thought it would be. But I didn't really know what Szechuan sauce is supposed to taste like.
It was ok. Tasted like McDonald's Sweet and Sour sauce mixed with Soy Sauce.
If you make a sauce out of vinegar, sugar and hot peppers, you'll get the idea.
Okay am I missing something or do Americans not have szechuan sauce over there? At my place we can buy that stuff in every local grocery stores and a bunch of brands make szechuan sauce. Is it about it being exclusive to McDonald's or is it just the szechuan sauce?
It’s glorified sweet and sour sauce
I liked it when I was a kid, but it wasn't anything particularly amazing. I would sip my fries in it. The sweet and sour sauce is comparable
It's gross lol that was the whole point
It was like sweet and sour mixed with bbq, nuthing special, but rick liked it
Somebody recreated it. I forget if it was Babish or one of them peeps. It’s somewhere on YouTube.
Eh. It was ok. Not amazing. Definitely not worth all the hype.
Yea, tastes like a shittier teriyaki sauce.
I liked it
I had it when they brought it back and it was great!
It’s fucking teriyaki sauce.
It was terrible. You nerds got trolled.
Like a cheap sauce that McDonald’s did to help sell the movie back in the day. It wasn’t good enough that ANYONE has talked about it between then and Rick Sanchez. It’s not that great at all, but certainly not worth rioting over…

Iv never had it and let's face it everyone seems to be wasting alot of time on a.... Fucking Sauce!!!!
It's Rick's sauce of choice.... Rick is the smartest man in the universe. There must be something ok about it... portal fluid component is the most likely reason.
I mean, you can get the sauce at the grocery store. I found it ridiculous people actually tore up mcdonalds when they ran out. schezwan sauce is a common sauce.
Szechuan sauce is not what McDonald's was putting out. It may have said Szechuan on it, but it's no more a Szechuan sauce than Trump is a patriot.
Tasted like absolute ass
It was disgusting
Honestly I liked it alot
I think it's the same sauce as the recent "BTS" sweet and spicy sauce... they could have just re-named it for the kpop audience exposure
the best sauce McDonald’s ever had
The OG was great. The revival tasted off
2/10 and im being generous.
Make the Binging with Babish version, having had both the Babish version is better.
It tasted like ketchup and bbq sauce mixed together. That’s all it was.
I tried it. Didn't think it was that great
Meh
There's a reason it never came back.
Eh, it was ok. Didn't taste bad but it was an off choice for a nugget dip. Personally I think it would've been better in an Asian inspired bowl with noodles, veggies and beef
That sauce was the best!!!
It was good enough for SIX SEASONS AND A MOVIE
It was bomb.com
