From September 28 through Halloween Day, the burger giant is offering its popular patty sandwich inside a pitch-black bun that's flavored with A.1. sauce and sprinkled with white sesame seeds. The burger comes loaded with the usual Whopper fixings (melted American cheese, pickles, white onion, tomato and mayonnaise) but this one also has a dash of A.1. sauce—something I don't think I've tried in over 20 years.
The verdict: it's kinda, sorta...well...okay, really good.
The black bun has the squishiness of a Martin potato roll and a tiny hint of black pepper that's a good complement to the smoky charcoal-broiled burger, crunchy iceberg lettuce and creamy mayo. I can't believe I'm saying this, but the addition of the A.1. sauce really brings out the umami flavors of the sandwich. Who am I?

Toasted rye bread buns would be good.

I’ll feed a couple to my family members first. If they survive and remain healthy, I’ll try it.

A few years ago, Wendy’s had a limited run of their pretzel-dough buns. Those things were damn good!

The single best hamburger I have ever had from a fast food place was a Whopper. Despite that, they are generally one of the worst. Actually I haven’t eaten at one in 20 years so it may have changed.
The only one I have tried in at least ten years was McDonald’s and it was just plain awful.
