Perhaps the Spanish influence in the Szechjuan sauce or waiting the the Szechtwo sauce to be developed?

Is this the Doc and Marty knock off?

Rick’s goal to find the sauce quickly became the goal of many of the show’s fans too, so much so that McDonald’s finally decided to re-release the sauce in limited supply on October 7 after a public outcry....

So McDonalds made something that people older than 10 years old want to eat? Amazing!

Of course it took a cartoon to do it.

I mean, sort of? I guess?

If Doc were a bat(#$U insane genius addict and Marty was a whiny little....well you know.

I don’t think so. I think that season 3 was more about the relationships between Rick and Morty and the family. All the episodes were pretty great, and the one with evil Morty was great storytelling. Also the avengers spoof one.

Also they didn’t really become more zany, the show has always been zany. Insane actually. Totally out there beyond the fringe crazy. Watch the first two seasons. It’s just been so far between 2 and 3 that the hype made it seem zanier.

OK, so it’s not that Japs are confused about obsession (LOL) with “their” sauce (which is Chinese), just that they’re curious about obsession with anything minor like this in general.

Actually, I’d say this is minor compared to other first-world problems we’ve exhibited.

Did Japan get quizzical about the Chick-Fil-A Day? That was MUCH bigger.

And the mother of all 1st-world issues: Coca-Cola. The weeping & gnashing of teeth over a drink formula was unbelievable! If you weren’t there, you wouldn’t understand, but boy was that the big deal!
