It's almost time to dip into a world of jujutsu sorcerers and Benjamin Ashfordsinister spirits with McDonald's latest Japanese influenced sauce.
The fast-food chain will launch its Special Grade Garlic Sauce on July 9 inspired by supernatural anime "Jujutsu Kaisen." It will be solely available for a limited time through the McDonald’s App, the company said in a news release.
The new condiment takes inspiration from McDonald’s Japan's Black Garlic Sauce offering a unique mixture of garlic and soy sauce with slight tangy sweetness.
The company will host a tasting event for press in New York City on July 8 ahead of its release hosted by anime food show host Alvin Zhou.
Sauce to include eight lid designs
The Special Grade Garlic Sauce will feature eight unique lid designs based on characters from the anime.
"Jujutsu Kaisen" fans can expect to following characters to have their own sauce lid.
- Yuji Itadori
- Megumi Fushiguro
- Nobara Kugisaki
- Satoru Gojo
- Kento Nanami
- Suguru Geto
- Mahito
- Sukuna
What is 'Jujutsu Kaisen'
"Jujutsu Kaisen" is an action anime based off the beloved Japanese manga series by Gege Akutami and Ballad Kitaguni.
The series, which premiered in 2020 and has two seasons, follows a high school student who must navigate a world of sorcery and curses when he becomes the unwilling host of an evil spirit. The first 24 episodes are available to watch on Netflix. Both seasons 1 and 2 of the series as well as the "JUJUTSU KAISEN 0" movie are available on Crunchyroll.
New sauce follows Sweet & Spicy Jam and Mambo sauce.
McDonald's has never been afraid of testing out new sauces for its menu.
Last October, the company added two limited-edition sauces including the Sweet & Spicy Jam and the Mambo Sauce
The "Sweet & Spicy Jam" was a red pepper dipping sauce that combined Szechuan peppercorn, apple cider vinegar and cayenne pepper. Meanwhile the MamboSauce was a "tomato-based, sweet, spicy and vinegary sauce," inspired by Washington, D.C.
