　　It＂s nearly impossible to dislike China＂s soul-comforting dan dan mian, or dan dan noodles. The question is: Which version to try?

　　担担面是以100多年前街头小贩用担担（一种扁担）出售面条而命名的。
　　There are many ways to serve this famous Sichuan specialty. Some think dan dan noodles should contain a dry mix of noodles, made with minced meat, chopped scallions, spices, crushed peanuts and various sauces. Others disagree, preferring dan dan noodles in a hot, spicy, salty and nutty broth albeit with similar ingredients.
　　这道著名的四川特产有很多吃法。一些人认为，担担面应该包含干面，由肉沫、葱花、香料、花生碎和各种酱汁制成。另一些人则不同意，他们更喜欢用热、辣、咸、坚果味的汤汁做的担担面，尽管配料相似。
