Starting Monday, February 26, 20 million packets of Szechuan Sauce will be available across all US McDonald’s restaurants with a qualifying purchase, while supplies last. Along with the sauce McDonalds has created "The Sauce" podcast, a 3-episode peek into what happened October 7th when people camped out, crossed state lines and were eventually disappointed that they could not get the sauce, as it had run out. It's a production of Studio@Gizmodo and Onion Labs.

To provide as much sauce as possible, they used 5 supplier partners spread out across the country to make it. They had to make sure five different people could make the exact same sauce and have the same cup, the same label and the ingredient statements.
