The second season of Loki is almost here! How is Marvel getting the word out? By giving us Loki-brand sweet ‘n’ sour sauce, obviously.
I am very familiar with McDonald’s sweet ‘n’ sour sauce. It’s not just good for dunking nuggets; you can use it to dunk fries or even burgers. Try it, what’s the worst that could happen?
Anyway, I know the distinctive lime green covering on the sweet ‘n’ sour sauce packets quite well. Recently, a video went viral on TikTok showing a new kind of cover, one based on Marvel’s god of mischief:
"@mo0nf0x new sauce alert. try the new Loki sweet and sour sauce at mcdonalds. it’s for our new meals in August in honor of loki. #loki #lokiseries #marvelstudios #marvel #mcdonalds #augustmeal #manager #fypシ #fypage ♬ original sound – blossom"
Loki sweet ‘n’ sauce is coming to McDonald’s
In the MCU, Loki has always been associated with the color green, so if you’re gonna cross-brand him with a dipping sauce, McDonald’s sweet ‘n’ sour sauce is the way to go. This new covering is a bit of a darker green color than usual, but we’ll adjust.
Just to be clear, I don’t think they changed the recipe of the sauce, just added some Loki branding to it. By the sound of things on Twitter, the new sauce goes on sale on August 14. Loki season 2 premieres on Disney+ on October 6.
