在我们悠闲地享受国庆小长假期间,美国的麦当劳被一群吃货包围了。究竟是什么原因,一款麦乐鸡的酱汁竟让美国人如此疯狂?也许是因为上半年美剧Rick and Morty 第三季的播出让美国朋友们回味起19年前的味道;也许是得不到的永远在骚动;也许是没有生在我大天朝,好吃的调味品太少。总之,吃货的力量是可怕的……我们一起来听听看在大洋彼岸到底发生了什么吧!

McDonald's vows to reboot Szechuan Sauce for spurned
'Rick and Morty' fans
Fans of both the show and hot sauce were outraged Saturday when they descended upon their local McDonald's in search of Szechuan Sauce for McNuggets and came away empty-handed.
McDonald'sadmitted that it didn't anticipate the fervor.
" Between the costumes, the memes and the cross-state travel, you, the fans, showed us what you got. And our super-limited batch, though well-intentioned, clearly wasn't near enough to meet that demand. "
" Szechuan sauce is coming back once again this winter. Instead of being one-day-only and limited to select restaurants, we're bringing more -- a lot more -- so that any fan who's willing to do whatever it takes for Szechuan Sauce will only have to ask for it at a nearby McDonald's. "
Glossary:
1. reboot our economy: 重振经济
2. meet the demand: 满足(顾客的)需求
3. one-day-only: 只有一天的
e.g. It's a one-day-only surprise salewith prices starting at $9.99!
4. select: 精选的,挑选出来的
