In Japan, Burger King Has a Black Cheese Burger

[Suzanimal]

Ewwww....

Looks like they found a way to make BK food more unappealing.

The black buns? We've seen those before. But why, Burger King, why black cheese? Why?

NariNari reports that Burger King Japan is rolling out another "Kuro Burger" ("Black Burger"), with buns made from bamboo charcoal, an onion and garlic sauce made with squid ink, beef patties made with black pepper, and black cheese, which is also apparently made with bamboo charcoal.

I don't think I've ever seen black cheese in my entire life. This could be a first for me.



There are two types of burgers: the Kuro (Black) Pearl and the Kuro (Black) Diamond with all the fixings. The burgers go on sale later this month in Japan for a limited time only.

The black bread doesn't bother me, but black cheese?

Looks like something an Environmentalist group would use to campaign against Big Oil...

They look like they were made from tar pits the dinosaurs got stuck in.

Hell , they even have black tomatoes, there are probably even people on the forum who have grown them , I grew pink tomatoes this yr ,and yellow , eat green and red tomatoes and grew some purple carrots one yr

[oyarde]

Do not think I am putting any black cheese on my list , though. I do like blue cheese , LOL

[luctor-et-emergo]

Nothing wrong with weird food. The thing that bothers me is that it's Burger King that's making weird food.

[luctor-et-emergo]

This is what it looks like when you order it apparently;


Sounds crazy but I'd definitely eat it. If only to try. It does look kind of tasty.

I've had purple potatoes. They were really starchy, I didn't care for them.

There are a lot of varieties of purple potatoes. I have some truffle potatoes growing here, they taste pretty decent.


But it's mostly fun just because you don't expect potato stuff to be purple. I tried to make crisps with it but it's really hard to keep the color while frying. I use mine to make mashed potatoes..

I only tried them because I always let my boys pick out something at the farmers market. The purple potatoes were disappointing but the Limburger cheese was hands down the worst.

BURGER KING’S BLACK ‘GOTH BURGER’ COMING TO THE USA JUST IN TIME FOR HALLOWEEN?

Last year, we brought you the news of Burger King’s limited edition Japan-only black hamburger. The unusual appearance of the so-called “Kuro Burgers” is due to their bamboo-coal-infused buns, squid-inked cheese, and pepper-encrusted meat patties.

A black hamburger. Why not? McDonald’s has its green “Shamrock Shake” every year for St. Patrick’s Day, why shouldn’t diehard goths be able to wolf down a seasonal “Kuro Burger” before they go trick or treating or to a Bauhaus reunion concert?

Now fast-food loving American goths will have a chance at eating this evil-looking fatty delicacy which will allegedly be known here as the “Halloween Whopper.”

Sadly, unlike the black burgers sold in Japan, the US version won’t have black cheese or the squid-ink sauce. Boo! Anecdotal reviews on Twitter and elsewhere have indicated that the Kuro burgers do not actually have an unusual taste, they just look good when being eaten by someone with a lot of eyeliner and teased up black hair.

You ate a potato and found it was too starchy? Have you ever eaten a potato before? What did you expect to find in this particular potato besides starch? Meat? Butter? Maple syrup? Potato=starch. Always. Purple potato=purple starch. Sheesh. Were you raised by wolves? Do I have to teach you everything?

[Suzanimal]

You ate a potato and found it was too starchy?

Yes.

Have you ever eaten a potato before?

Yes.

What did you expect to find in this particular potato besides starch?

Less starch.

Meat?

Bacon would be nice.

Butter?

Of course.

Maple syrup?

Maple bacon.

Potato=starch. Always.

Some seem starchier than others.

Purple potato=purple starch.

Yeah, I noticed that and it was kind of gnarly.

Sheesh. Were you raised by wolves?

Yes.

Do I have to teach you everything?

Obviously.
