McDonald's has brought back its Szechuan sauce - but the re-launch has left legions of fans disappointed.
麥當勞再次推出四川辣醬,然而重新推出的這款辣醬卻讓衆多粉絲失望了。

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,備受歡迎的動畫片《瑞克和莫蒂》播出了一段關於麥當勞限量四川辣醬的笑話。這款辣醬最初是在迪斯尼電影《花木蘭》(1998年)上映的時候推出的。

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.
結果,成千上萬的粉絲參與了請願活動,請求這家快餐連鎖店重新推出四川辣醬。最終麥當勞讓步了,並於10月份限量發售了一批四川辣醬。

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,辣醬的供應量卻遠遠不足,這使許多人失望不已,當時競標網站上甚至還冒出了一些標價爲995美元(712英鎊)的四川辣醬。

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.
爲了彌補過錯,麥當勞宣佈,週一將在全美各地上架2000萬袋四川辣醬。

However, it seems this second attempt at Rick & Morty super fans hasn't gone quite to plan.
然而,第二次針對《瑞克和莫蒂》超級粉絲的嘗試似乎沒有達到預期的效果。

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,他們當地的麥當勞根本就沒有四川辣醬,而其他人則聲稱,他們那兒的麥當勞員工從未聽說過這回事。

Meanwhile, others who did manage to get their hands on the sauce are divided about the taste.
與此同時,其他設法得到這款辣醬的人對其味道的評價也褒貶不一。

“I just had Szechuan sauce and it was literally just teriyaki sauce,” one person commented.
“我剛剛拿到了四川辣醬,但它嚐起來簡直就像日式照燒醬,”有人評論道。

“It is the most overhyped bulls*** I have ever tasted,” someone else wrote.
“這是我嘗過的最誇大其詞的產品了,”其他人寫道。
