McDonald's recently came out with limited-edition Szechuan sauce.
If you are looking for a career change, a McDonald's sauce broker might not be a bad way to go. A woman from Michigan, USA, actually managed to trade her packet of McDonald's Szechuan sauce for a Volkswagen car! About a couple of weeks ago, McDonald's released a limited edition Szechuan sauce, which shot to popularity after being featured in an episode of the sci-fi cartoon series 'Rick and Morty'. One diehard 'Rick and Morty' fan actually exchanged his car for a packet of the sauce that 23-year-old Rachel Marie managed to get hold of.
According to the
Huffington Post, the 23-year-old graphic designer, a huge fan of 'Rick and Morty', waited in line for hours to get her hands on the super rare packet of sauce - which, incidentally, managed to cause a mob frenzy in California:
Rachel Marie then posted a pic of the limited edition sauce on a Facebook group where another fan offered his early 2000s Volkswagen Golf Mk4, reports
Business Insider.
A Facebook post by Justin Chiat, detailing the whole exchange in screenshots, has garnered over 4,000 shares since it was posted on October 11. It is also filled with incredulous, if impressed, responses from people who can't believe Rachel's luck.
"That's insane," writes one commenter. "Can't believe it," says another.
The
Eater reports that this is definitely not the first time that a McDonald's sauce has fetched astronomical prices. A special Mulan edition of the Szechuan Sauce fetched $14,000 on eBay earlier this year, while a bottle of Big Mac Sauce once went for around $16,000.Click for more
