For a company no one actually likes, people sure are interested in McDonald's food. This interest often takes shape as vulgar curiosity and conjecture about specific menu items. I still remember thinking its burgers were made from vat-grown mutant cows with no bones or central nervous system, for instance.

I say this because McDonald's is finally capitalizing on the myths surrounding its Big Mac secret sauce by selling bottles of it for the first time. Creatively titled "Big Mac Special Sauce," which sounds more interesting than "1000 Island Dressing Variant," the legendary burger enhancer will be sold in a limited run of 200 bottles.

As with all bewilderingly valuable things, the first bottle is being sold on eBay in Australia, with proceeds going to the Ronald McDonald House Charities.
