‘Rick And Morty’ Creator To Receive McDonald’s Discontinued Szechuan Sauce
Justin Roiland may feature his favorite McDonald’s condiment in “Rick and Morty” Season 3 again after the fast food chain said they will send him a jug of it.
According to Independent, McDonald’s will be sending Roiland a jug of his favorite Szechuan sauce. The series creator revealed that he plans to film himself with co-creator Dan Harmon trying the sauce when the fast food chain sends him his own jug of Szechuan.
Roiland is a big fan of the discontinued Szechuan sauce from McDonald’s. The sauce was only offered in 1998 when company tied up with Disney for the film “Mulan.” However, the series co-creator has not gotten over it. In fact, he featured this in the premiere episode of “Rick and Morty” Season 3. In the said episode titled “The Rickshank Rickdemption” there’s a scene where Rick (Roiland) admitted that he was on a time-travelling mission in the next nine episodes where he aimed to bring back the sauce.

The series creator had effectively triggered the audience’s love for the discontinued sauce when he incorporated it in the Adult Swim animated series. In fact, this resulted in a petition asking McDonald’s to bring back Szechuan. In this Change.org petition, the petitioner wrote, “McDonald’s Szechuan sauce is the best sauce known to man. It would be a tragedy for it to not come back to McDonald’s.”
A number of those who love Roiland’s animated series shared the petition online. “Hey @RickandMorty @adultswim it begins,” G. Clay Whittaker wrote. “Petitioning @McDonalds to bring back its Szechuan dipping sauce because @RickandMorty,” Christopher Schmitt shared the petition on Twitter. “Second to world peace,” Boss Logic also joined the campaign. At the time, 36,685 supporters already signed the petition.
McDonald's already responded to the request about their most wanted sauce. “.@RickandMorty McNugga Lubba Dub Dub,” the store wrote. In this Reddit thread, some fans tried to interpret the response. “In bird culture this means ‘We’re bringing the sauce back,’” Enigmaticaly wrote. “McNugga Lubba Dub Dub = ‘I am in great hunger. Please help me,’” BijeDragonne commented. However, some claims that the tweet was fake. Nevertheless, Roiland will be receiving his jug, so just wait and see if the fast food chain will really bring it back.
“Rick and Morty” Season 3 will return on July 30 at 11:30 p.m. EDT on Adult Swim.
