While the supply of the sauce is limited and run out quickly, fans still had a strong reaction to the news that former Mulan movie promotional sauce would make it’s limited return. While most fans are stoked, there are some who are little less than thrilled about their odds — or lack of them — at getting their hands on the sauce.
Read on for reactions to the return of Szechuan Sauce.
The excitement is real
The largest response from Rick and Morty fans has been excitement with people already noting that they have to have that sauce.

And so is the disappointment
For some fans, however, the initial excitement that Szechuan sauce is back quickly gave way disappointment and sadness when international fans discovered that the limited release would take place in selected U.S. locations only.
I cannot believe @McDonalds is bringing back Szechuan Sauce for 1 day ONLY IN THE US!! I couldntve picked a worse time to study abroad ?

But one thing is certain
However, it doesn’t really matter if fans are happy or frustrated, everyone could agree on one thing and that is on the impact Rick and Morty had on bringing the discontinued sauce back, even if for just one day.
