  McDonalds Just Announced a Stunning Change to Its Iconic French Fries (You Might Actually Like It)麦当劳刚刚宣布要给它标志性的炸薯条进行一项惊人的改革(而你很可能会爱死它)

  

  If theres one thing that most people I know like to eat at McDonalds, its their iconic French fries. Theres just something about them that makes them hard to beat. 我认识的大部分人都喜欢吃麦当劳的一样东西,那就是他们标志性的炸薯条。不知道为什么,这种食物就是会让人欲罢不能。

  

  However, McDonalds just announced an addition to its French fries options that the company thinks will make them even better. Bacon. And cheese.而现在,麦当劳宣布要给他们的炸薯条再加一点料,这家公司认为这样会锦上添花。他们要加的就是培根和芝士。

  

  According to a McDonalds announcement, beginning on January 30, McDonalds customers will be able to order Cheesy Bacon Fries. The idea is actually pretty simple: melt cheddar cheese sauce over hot fries, and then sprinkle on smoked bacon bits. But thats not all...根据麦当劳的声明,从1月30号开始,顾客们就可以点芝士培根薯条了。这个想法其实很简单:热烘烘的薯条上淋上融化的切达芝士,然后再撒上切碎的熏培根。但还不止这些……

  

  The company will also introduce two new bacon-centric items to its menu: a Big Mac Bacon burger, and a Quarter Pounder Bacon burger. According to a McDonalds announcement, bacon is hot -- earning 17,000 mentions a day on U.S. online platforms -- and the company wants to get on board the trend. 麦当劳还会推出两款以培根为主原料的新品:培根巨无霸和培根至尊牛堡。根据麦当劳的说法,培根的人气很高,它在美国的网络社交平台上每天能被提起17,000次,而麦当劳想要赶上这波风潮。

  

  The company tested Cheesy Bacon Fries in Hawaii, Northern California and McDonalds Chicago global headquarters in 2018 before deciding to roll them out nationwide in 2019. According to the company, they were positively received in each market.麦当劳之前已经于2018年在夏威夷、加州北部和他们位于芝加哥的总部试点了芝士培根薯条,之后才决定于2019年在全美国推广。根据麦当劳自己的说法,他们在试点的每个市场都收获了正面的反响。

  

  I suspect, given Americas infatuation with bacon, that the Big Mac Bacon burger and the Quarter Pounder Bacon burger will do just fine too. As the company says, theres no such thing as too much bacon.我觉得,考虑到美国人对培根的喜爱,之后的培根巨无霸和培根至尊牛堡也会卖得好的。就像这家公司自己说的:“培根这种东西是绝对不嫌多的。”

  

  Like many of McDonalds recent food announcements, this one has an expiration date. While there is no specific date mentioned, the company says that Cheesy Bacon Fries and the bacon burgers will be available only for a limited time. So, if youre interested in checking out these new menu items, youd better not wait too long.就像麦当劳近来的很多新品一样,这次的新品也是有时限的。虽然他们还没有公布具体的时间,但他们确实说芝士培根薯条和培根汉堡都是限时供应的。所以,如果你想试试这些新品,那可不要等太久哦。

  

   

  

  今日词汇

  

  option /ɔpʃən/ 

  

  n. 选项

  

   

  

  option 的意思是“选项”。

  

  其实这个词在中学课本里出现得就挺早,但这里还是要把它和 choice 区分一下。

  

  说 choice 的时候一般是强调你最后选了什么:

  

  Youve made your choice.你已经做出了选择。(该负责了)

  

  而说 option 的时候一般是强调你有多个选项可选:

  

  Our options are not that limited.我们手头上的选择并不少。
