McDonald’s will be selling pots of Big Mac sauce for the first time ever
If you can’t get enough of McDonald’s iconic Big Mac sauce, you’ll soon be able to ordered it as an individual pot to have with your chips, nuggets, or whatever else you fancy.
Big Mac ‘Special Sauce’ was previously only available on the aforementioned burger, but you’ll soon be able to order it on its own to have with anything on the menu.
If you’re indecisive and you simply don’t know whether you want a Big Mac or chicken nuggets, you can now have the best of both worlds.
The individual pots will be available in the UK and Ireland from Wednesday 12th February. They have a seven-day shelf life if you fancy stocking up, too.
McDonald’s has said it expects demand for the sauce to be huge, with staff being told to prepare for bulk orders and queues. They'll be on sale until they run out. We’ll definitely be in the queue at our local!
Fan's are also thrilled that McDonald's Monopoly will be making a welcome return next summer.
The Big Mac Special Sauce has been a McDonald’s staple for years, with the fast food restaurant using the same recipe since 1972. However, it did change slightly between 1991 and 2004.
