McDonald’s fans get ready — some exciting news is on the way.

We’ve seen all kinds of updates from McDonald’s lately, from news about changes to its iconic burgers to new Happy Meal toys and a limited-time snack. But this latest update had us sliding into McDonald’s DMs — sort of.

Recently, McDonald’s posted on Twitter about a “saucy secret” it had. The Tweet said “plz don’t text and ask me what it is,” so…of course, we HAD to text the number to get the details.

When we texted the number, we were met with a message about getting recurring marketing texts. Okay, okay, we totally knew this would be a marketing scheme but we’re still interested to see what secrets could be revealed!

After responding, we got some information for “the person who runs the McDonald’s account” and were asked to add them to our contacts. The number is the same as the one in the saucy secret Tweet. It had a McDonald’s logo as the contact image in a drawing form (sort of like kid-like scribbles).

Then apparently “Brian from legal” prompted the contact to ask for our time zone. We responded to this and then got…silence. NOTHING! We even followed up with another message asking for a clue but did not receive a response for a while.

From the image shared via social media, we can see that whatever sauce forms part of this secret appears to have a 2023 copyright symbol — that could mean that it’ll be something brand new.

UPDATE 1: McDonald’s finally texted us back!! They said, “ok here’s the saucy secret for you: a new sauce will be dropping exclusively on the app 4/27 plz don’t share it.”

UPDATE 2: We later got ANOTHER text from McDonald’s revealing the full secret! Starting April 27th, 2023, you’ll be able to put Big Mac Sauce on EVERYTHING. This is an app-exclusive offering but it seems that when ordering through the McDonald’s app, you’ll be able to add Big Mac Sauce to take any of your meals to the next level. Big Mac Sauce + Fries, Big Mac Sauce + Hash Browns — the possibilities are endless!

It seems we weren’t the only ones getting in on the fun. Other popular brands were chiming in about the “saucy secrets.” Triscuit posted a response and McDonald’s asked, “triscuit did you text me.”

And Auntie Anne’s suggested a pretzel fries and sauce combo, with McDonald’s responding that they could “see the vision.”

WhatsApp, Slim Jim, and even Wheat Thins got in on the action.

McDonald’s did recently announce that MORE Big Mac sauce would be added to its Big Macs, marking a change for that sandwich. So it makes sense that the sauce will now be available for people to experience more menu items.
