Police were called to at least one outlet after people in queues for the sauce began getting angry and chanting “we want sauce”.
Fans of Rick and Morty, a hugely popular US science fiction cartoon that riffs off the Back to the Future films, descended on McDonald’s restaurants in cities across the US on Saturday after the chain announced it would be selling a limited run of a long out-of-production Szechuan dipping sauce that is referenced in the show’s third season.
However, things turned sour when fans, who according reports had queued for hours in some places, were told there was no more sauce.

Is there another undiscovered continent somewhere?
This one is trashed.
I saw the new head of McDougal's is doing a lot of stuff like this.
He wants a modern progressive burger company. Whatever that is.
You'd think he'd have learned something from Kellogg's and the NFL.
Whatever that is.
Read the story that Lem posted, that's what it is. Obsure food popular to a very small but loyal niche that protest like pajama boys when they don't get what they want. McDonald's probably figures they are better than the urban crowd that calls 911 whenever they don't get their happy meal right.
"We want sauce"
Don't we all? In some form or another? Learning to acknowledge and release disappointment and choose to direct life energy elsewhere is part of what growing up is supposed to involve. And when that life skill goes unlearned: chaos and acrimony.
It's not like the information isn't out there: Growing up Again: Parenting ourselves and Parenting our Children. Published in 1998 https://www.amazon.com/Growing-Up-Again-Parenting-Ourselves/dp/1568381905
That said, the folks on the McD side seem equally surprised and stunted.
Like looking at a different species. Are they human?
As Carson would've said: Weird, wild, stuff.
Haven't been inside a McD's for 15 years, except to get their cheap Coffee in the AM.
