Burger King is currently celebrating their 5^th year in Japan.  But in an already saturated fast food market the famous American chain is a little late to the game.

So, in an effort to truly stand out from the crowd, Burger King Japan has designed fast food’s first black hamburger.  Dubbed the Kuro Burger (lit. Black Burger), it will go on sale for a limited time starting 28 September.

Hell, all the burger chains in the U.S. already have black burgers in the U.S., the patties that is. They cook the patties so long that they would shatter if you dropped one on the floor. Totally inedible. And all because the chains have no confidence that they can handle hamburger well enough to keep from killing their customers with E. Coli. Their solution? Cook those suckers until their sterile! My solution? Buy chuck on sale at Safeway, have them grind it for me, and come home and sear it on the barbie!

Well, that might be almost as good as the “pulled socialist” BBQ sandwiches I suggested on another thread.

I saw that...yuk..yuk!!!

I was thinking that dark rye might be interesting.

They must be trying to come up with a burger that Moochel Obummer can’t complain about.

Ever eat cold pizza right out of the fridge, without heating it up?

Absolutely. Cold pizza makes a great breakfast.
