Fast good giant McDonald's is auctioning off a limited supply of its secret Big Mac sauce on eBay. The charity drive comes with an eye-popping price tag - and the promise of a better life.

Kids won't eat their veggies? Girlfriend laughs at your lasagna? McDonald's promises to make everything "better!" with the click of a button. Only two things could stand between you and 500ml of pure happiness: 1) You don't live in Australia. 2) You're short 23,100.00 Australian dollars (app. 15,640 euros, $17,680) and counting.

Yes, you got that right: 23,100.00 Australian dollars. That's the price the fast food giant is currently asking for the first of its only 200 "Limited Edition Big Mac Special Sauce" bottles, it is auctioning off on eBay for charity.

"For too long Big Mac Special Sauce has been trapped in a beautiful, delicious burger - now we've set it free!," McDonald's proudly proclaimed on its auctioning site.

Maybe this will help make up for the sales slump that has inflicted the world's largest burger chain. At least as long as the secret ingredient in the special sauce won't spoil anyone's appetite - like the out-of-date meat and teeth, which were found in McDonald's food in China and Japan last year.

1. I'm an anti-macD

McDonalds has not one thing I would allow past these lips. Of course, I feel the same way about chemo (yes I have had cancer), mind altering drugs, viagra (and all boner pills) hormone replacement pills, and a few other so called medicines.

2. That's a lot to pay

For mayonnaise, ketchup, pickle relish, and sugar.

3. Not to mention what ever embalming fluid and jet fuel is in it.

4. I worked at McD's back in the mid '60s.

They put the same tartar sauce on the Big Mac as they did on the Filet O' Fish. Since then, I guess they've added a dash of ketchup for color.
