不推薦的牛丼飯 / A beef bowl I wouldn't recommend

便利商店的微波食品不但品項眾多，有些品項還是和知名美食品牌的聯名產品，味道及品質都有一定的保障，本來我是這樣認為的，所以，對於便利商店的微波食品，我還算是信任，然而，這次開箱的壽喜燒牛丼飯，我踩雷了。

提到牛丼飯，我第一個想到的就是連鎖牛丼飯品牌吉野家，是日本的牛丼御三家之一，吉野家其中歷史最悠久的一家，而吉野家最著名的商品就是便宜又大碗的牛丼飯，用簡單的牛肉、洋蔥和醬油調味，以簡單美味和快速供應聞名，我已經很久沒去吉野家吃它們的牛丼飯，印象中，牛丼飯雖然便宜，但是份量還可以，而我也好久沒吃過牛丼飯，所以，下意識地就挑選它了。

微波後打開後，把醬汁及牛肉片倒在飯上，咦！飯上怎麼只有兩、三片牛肉片，當牛肉片混在醬汁時，看不出有幾片牛肉片，但當醬汁被白飯吸收後，牛肉片就一目了然，我看到後，有些小失望，吃了幾口飯之後，又更加失望，有一種在吃醬油拌飯的感覺，身後，默默地有道冷風吹過，我好像明白，我踩雷了。

這時候，再檢查便當包裝，包裝上寫的是壹號醬壽喜燒牛丼，壹號醬是調味漿名稱嗎？這是甚麼鬼啊！我看到牛丼飯時，可能被沖昏頭，並沒注意到細節，看來以後，只要是便利商店賣的丼飯都要小心檢查，事先查查網路上的口碑，免得再次踩雷。

Convenience store microwave meals come in a wide variety, and some are even collaborations with famous food brands, so I’ve generally trusted their taste and quality. At least, that’s what I used to think. But this time, when I tried the sukiyaki beef bowl, it was a total disappointment.

When I think of beef bowls, the first brand that comes to mind is Yoshinoya, one of Japan’s top three beef bowl chains. Yoshinoya is the oldest and is famous for its affordable and hearty beef bowls, made with simple ingredients like beef, onions, and soy sauce. Their beef bowls are known for being simple yet delicious, and they’re served quickly. It’s been a long time since I’ve had a beef bowl from Yoshinoya, but I remember it being decent in portion size despite the low price. Since I hadn’t had a beef bowl in a while, I instinctively picked this one up.

After microwaving it and pouring the sauce and beef onto the rice, I noticed something odd—there were only two or three slices of beef on top! When the beef is mixed with the sauce, you can’t really tell how many slices there are. But after the rice soaked up the sauce, it became clear, and I was pretty disappointed. After a few bites, I was even more let down. It felt like I was just eating soy sauce-flavored rice. I could almost feel a cold breeze behind me as I realized I’d made a bad choice.

At that point, I checked the packaging again. It said “No. 1 Sauce Sukiyaki Beef Bowl”. No. 1 Sauce? Is that the name of the seasoning? What’s that even supposed to mean? I think I got carried away when I saw “beef bowl” and didn’t pay attention to the details. From now on, I’m definitely going to be more careful with convenience store beef bowls. I’ll check reviews online beforehand to avoid another disappointment like this.
