I remember seeing a black bunned burger from Japan (surprise, surprise), a while back. I don't remember much about it, but I think it was made with different ingredients to make it black. Also, pretty sure it was from BK.

EDIT: There was a black bun BK burger last year in Japan. Apparently, it was colored with bamboo charcoal, but it tasted pretty similar to a normal bun. The cheese was also black. http://www.syracuse.com/news/index.ssf/2014/09/the_kuro_taste_peppery_tang_and_hint_of_squid_ink.html

Is it already out? I normally love to eat all the weird Halloween branded food that comes out. If it's out in my area I can try and grab one.

Post by: wilykat on October 01, 2015, 02:12:16 PM: Looks like extra dark rye bread to me. Been meaning to try it this week but I had a late summer cold to keep me from enjoying anything. My taste bud right now is so bad if I had ice cream, it'd taste like ketchup. if I had chicken noodle soup, it tastes like moldy tomato. If I had ramen noodle, it tastes like cardboard. (oh wait, that is normal!)

I've had to skip pricier meals this week and passed up a trip to sushi restaurant because with rice, fish, and wasabi it might end up tasting like chocolate ice cream with mustard and soy sauce on.
