McDonald's is bringing back Szechuan sauce (again) and this time, the company appears to have learned from last year's ugly sauce debacle.

The fast food giant said today it's sending more than 20 million packets of Szechuan sauce to McDonald's restaurants, instead of just sending out three or four packets to select restaurants. Szechuan sauce packets will be available beginning Feb. 26, and will last as long as quantities last.

McDonald's is desperately trying to avoid another Szechuan sauce fiasco.

The company miscalculated demand for the sauce in October 2017, when it played into a popular Rick and Morty joke and reproduced a 20-year old sauce, causing havoc at McDonald's restaurants across the country. McDonald's first issued the sauce as part of a tie-in with Disney's 1998 animated movie Mulan.
New thread for new news, folks.

fun. :/ At least the promotional podcast(!) claims that the shortage wasn't a deliberate marketing gimmick.

Next time, why don't we bring back Sriracha Mac sauce?
