According to a press release, the company is calling their particular brand of sauce, "Signature Sriracha" or "Awesome Sauce." You know, for the kids.
The sauce is a combination of the beloved Sriracha and the company's signature Big Mac sauce.
While many customers are eager find their favorite condiment so readily available, others have deemed Sriracha hipster hot sauce.
However, the spicy chili sauce has been a staple in different Asian restaurants and an increasingly popular grocery store item for many years. If anything, its recent popularity is a result of cultural appropriation that McDonald's has, in turn, also appropriated.

The new burger has been tested out San Diego and Los Angeles over the last month and will be available in participating Seattle restaurants starting July 7.
