Fans of the QSR sandwich sauce in Japan are now able to pick up a jar of the McDonald's Big Mac Sauce online, but only if they act extremely fast. Limited to just 300 jars in total, the sauce is available for purchase online for 1,900 yen and comes packaged in a box that looks just like the one that the sandwich itself is served in.
The McDonald's Big Mac Sauce was originally made available for free in the United States with the brand giving away a total of 10,000, while the sauce has been formally introduced into the Canadian market for sale in grocery stores. This extremely limited offer in Japan will likely be met with similar pandemonium when it is made available for purchase from June 3 to 27.
