The co-creator of “Rick and Morty”, Justin Roiland, will be able to dip his McDonald’s nuggets in the famous “Mulan” Szechuan Sauce.
At the end of the Season 3 premiere, Rick, the consistently drunk scientist who goes on galactic and dimensional adventures with his grand-kids, ended the episode with craving the “Mulan” Szechuan Sauce, even stating that “even if it takes nine seasons”. The first episode of this season was broadcast on April Fool’s Day. The “Mulan” Szechuan Sauce was the limited release sauce that was used to promote Disney’s “Mulan” in 1998.
Rick tells Morty in the episode:
“ I’m not driven by avenging my dead family, Morty. That was fake. I’m driven by finding that McNugget sauce. I want that Mulan McNugget sauce, Morty. That’s my series arc, Morty. If it takes nine seasons, I want my McNugget dipping sauce Szechuan sauce.”
After this episode successfully aired, the new love and interest for this sauce rose. At Anime Expo, held at the Los Angeles Convention Center, many people dressed up in “Rick and Morty” cosplays, including the sauce as props.
During San Diego Comic Con, Roiland mentioned that he will be getting the condiments. McDonald has answered his prayers and sent him the sauce.
There was even a backstory to this sauce!
The note also mentioned that “a few lucky fans will also get to experience the glory.”
It is still pending on whether or not McDonald’s will permeate this sauce in stores.
