McDonald's has brought back its Szechuan sauce - but the re-launch has left legions of fans disappointed.
麦当劳再次推出四川辣酱,然而重新推出的这款辣酱却让众多粉丝失望了。
Last year, cult cartoon Rick and Morty featured a joke regarding McDonald's limited edition Szechuan sauce, which was initially released alongside the 1998 Disney movie Mulan.
去年,备受欢迎的动画片《瑞克和莫蒂》播出了一段关于麦当劳限量四川辣酱的笑话。这款辣酱最初是在迪斯尼电影《花木兰》(1998年)上映的时候推出的。
As a result, thousands of fans signed a petition demanding the fast food chain bring it back, and eventually McDonald’s gave in by releasing a limited batch in October.
结果,成千上万的粉丝参与了请愿活动,请求这家快餐连锁店重新推出四川辣酱。最终麦当劳让步了,并于10月份限量发售了一批四川辣酱。
However, the shortfall of sauces proved to be not nearly enough, leaving many disappointed while some packets even appeared on bidding sites for $995 (£712.)
然而,辣酱的供应量却远远不足,这使许多人失望不已,当时竞标网站上甚至还冒出了一些标价为995美元(712英镑)的四川辣酱。
To make up for the blunder , McDonald's announced that it would be dishing out 20 million packets of the Szechuan sauce at locations across the United States on Monday.
为了弥补过错,麦当劳宣布,周一将在全美各地上架2000万袋四川辣酱。
However, it seems this second attempt at Rick & Morty super fans hasn't gone quite to plan.
然而,第二次针对《瑞克和莫蒂》超级粉丝的尝试似乎没有达到预期的效果。
According to Twitter, some reported that their local McDonald's restaurant didn't have the sauce in stock while others claim that employees had never heard of it.
有人在推特上表示,他们当地的麦当劳根本就没有四川辣酱,而其他人则声称,他们那儿的麦当劳员工从未听说过这回事。
Meanwhile, others who did manage to get their hands on the sauce are divided about the taste.
与此同时,其他设法得到这款辣酱的人对其味道的评价也褒贬不一。
“I just had Szechuan sauce and it was literally just teriyaki sauce,” one person commented.
“我刚刚拿到了四川辣酱,但它尝起来简直就像日式照烧酱,”有人评论道。
“It is the most overhyped bulls*** I have ever tasted,” someone else wrote.
“这是我尝过的最夸大其词的产品了,”其他人写道。
