Loki's Sauce: The Game-Changer at McDonald's That's Setting Taste Buds on Fire!

Summary

Loki season 2 is partnering with McDonald's, with a new sauce and potentially a new McFlurry in the collaboration.

McDonald's has a track record of fruitful collaborations with renowned films and television series. This partnership holds the possibility of gaining immense traction, akin to the recent viral Grimace Shake trend, and may significantly amplify the success of Loki season 2.

The Grimace Shake trend is being overshadowed by Loki season 2 at McDonald's, thanks to the introduction of a new sauce. Tom Hiddleston reprises his role as the Loki variant from Avengers: Endgame, now leading his own series on Disney+ for the second season of Loki. This upcoming season promises even more thrilling escapades for Loki, alongside Owen Wilson's Mobius M. Mobius and Sophia Di Martino's Sylvie. The trailer for Loki season 2 gave fans a sneak peek of Sylvie working at a McDonald's, and the show is capitalizing on this storyline.

Taking to Twitter, the official McDonald's account hinted at a collaboration with the show that is set to debut on August 14th.

McDonald's showcased its long-standing partnerships with movies and shows in a recent video, featuring a glimpse of Loki and Sylvie in a McDonald's from season 2 of Loki. The fast food chain further hinted at their collaboration by sharing an image of a takeout bag with a date and the phrase "As Featured In."

Meanwhile, on TikTok, @mo0nf0x provided more details about the Loki and McDonald's partnership. In a video, they unveiled the first look at "The Sweet 'N Sour Sauce," a Loki-themed offering. Additionally, the TikToker teased the upcoming release of a new McFlurry as part of the McDonald's collaboration with Loki.

Can Loki's McDonald's Tie-In Recapture The Grimace Shake's Viral Success

McDonald's has a history of capitalizing on popular movies and TV shows, as shown by their collaboration with the Marvel series. This isn't the first time they have done so. For example, in 2017, the animated series Rick and Morty caused a frenzy among fans with the re-release of McDonald's Szechuan sauce.

The Szechuan sauce was originally introduced by McDonald's in 1998 as part of a promotion for the animated film Mulan. However, it gained renewed attention when Rick and Morty included a joke about it in season 3. Fans passionately demanded its return, and McDonald's listened. The Szechuan sauce was brought back for a limited release, but the demand was so high that the fast food chain had to eventually do a wide release of the sauce. Fans were upset when supplies quickly ran out, leading to the wider release.

Recently, McDonald's has launched the Grimace Shake, a berry-flavored milkshake inspired by their Grimace character. This unique shake has gained popularity and gone viral on TikTok, with users creatively portraying themselves as if they had passed away or were discovered in a peculiar condition at an undisclosed place after consuming the Grimace Shake. Given the immense success of Loki season 2, which has already shattered Marvel records, a collaboration between McDonald's and Loki could potentially achieve the same viral momentum. The addition of McDonald's sauce might propel the show to unprecedented heights.
