Shut the fuck up about McDonald's Szechuan sauce

Good grief…are those actual numbers?

What…did they press the assembly line button for like just 1 minute or something.

Yeah…the fans ARE being crazy assed dicks…but Mc screwed the pooch pretty well here too.

From the Cafe Society thread about this issue:

@Cell_Guy

My wife’s company does merchandising and marketing for McDonalds and this was one of her projects. McD’s sent the sauce to them and they had to put the Rick and Morty labels on them (the sauce packets as shipped by McD’s were blank). She then assembled the kits and sent them out to the stores slated to have the sauce. How many stores? 200. How many sauce packets did those stores get? 20. Yep, McD’s only made 4000 sauce packets for this promotion.

So apparently it was a marketing issue more than a manufacturing one, since they were putting the labels on by hand. From McDonalds latest response, it sounds like they’re going to try again this winter, presumably actually starting up a full production line.
