Now, McDonald's Malaysia is making those little collections a thing of the past with the introduction of Sos Cili Mekdi in a bottle, marking the first time the much-loved chilli sauce has been made available in bottled form anywhere in the world.
The limited-edition release is a response to years of requests from Malaysian fans who have been asking for a more convenient way to enjoy their favourite sauce at home.

According to McDonald's Malaysia, one bottle contains approximately the same amount of chilli sauce as 44 individual sachets.
This means fans can now enjoy the signature taste of Sos Cili Mekdi beyond their usual McDonald's orders, whether paired with home-cooked meals, snacks or other favourite dishes.
The bottled packaging also makes it easier to keep the sauce in the kitchen and serve it whenever the craving strikes.
