What BBN said about it

Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentMcDonald's and Netflix have a KPop Demon Hunters meal, and the sauce is purple on purpose. It's called Demon Sauce.

Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentI've got a source familiar with the matter on the line from a parking garage.

Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentYou're anonymous, so what can you tell us about the sauce?
Obadiah TennantI can confirm it's purple. Keep that between us.
Obadiah TennantI was told the color matches the demon patterns in the film, and I'm only telling you because the lights in here are bad.

Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentMcDonald's said that publicly. It's in the announcement. Who told you?
Obadiah TennantI can confirm that a person with access said it. I can confirm the person was a press release.
Obadiah TennantI'm clicking my flashlight because I think someone's watching, and I can confirm it might be a pigeon.

Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentSo what else is in the meal?
Obadiah TennantI can confirm there are nuggets. Ten of them, in the HUNTR/X Meal, plus a medium soft drink. I can't say how I know.
Obadiah TennantOkay, it's on a sign.

Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentA sign.
Obadiah TennantI can confirm the sign is large.
Obadiah TennantAnd I can confirm there's a photocard pack, and that's as far as I'm willing to go without a lawyer or a ride home.

Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentSauce reveal rating: classified, but already printed.

Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentYour whole leak is on the menu board, and you're still the only one in the building who isn't a customer.
