The Szechuan Sauce created a frenzy in the US when one woman traded her 2003 Volkswagen Golf for a single packet, while another person sold a packet for $24,000.
Rick and Morty fans rioted in 2018 when McDonald’s USA released its Szechuan Sauce and demand outweighed supply.
"Rick and Morty" ended with a plea for McDonald's to bring back its Szechuan McNugget sauce, and the company obliged, but many locations stocked only a few dozen packets and fans were enraged.
At the time police were called to at least one restaurant after hundreds of people queued outside restaurants demanding the sauce at 4am.
