McDonald’s Corp. (NYSE:MCD) announced the addition of two new sauces, beginning on Oct. 9.
McDonald’s Sweet & Spicy Jam Sauce provides a pepper sauce with extra spice from Szechuan peppercorn and cayenne pepper, finished with apple cider vinegar. McDonald’s Mambo Sauce is a tomato-based sweet, spicy and vinegary sauce inspired by a regional Washington, D.C.-area sauce staple.
“We get inspiration for the food our fans love by exploring the incredible tastes and flavors found in communities across the country,” said Tariq Hassan, chief marketing and customer experience officer at McDonald’s USA. “Sweet & Spicy Jam and Mambo Sauce live at the intersection of flavor and culture – pulling from decades of rich food history and tradition in local restaurants and home kitchens, and bringing the delicious spice, sweetness and kick of heat we know today’s customers are craving.”
To promote the new sauces, McDonald’s is teaming up with several social media food influencers to review the new offerings. The company is also debuting an original documentary on its YouTube channel celebrating the Mambo food culture.
