Up For A Black Burger?

Burger King Japan has two new burgers with jet-black buns and black cheese Japan Today Japan News and Discussion


Would you tuck into a jet black burger?

Looks good

 

[Unkotare]

No, no. The sauce - and sometimes the pasta itself - is actually made from squid ink. Usually with lots of garlic as well. So good.

Well what does squid ink taste like? I hope it doesn't come from their butts!

It comes from inside the squid. You know how they shoot out ink when a predator is trying to catch them? Hard to explain how it tastes until you try it. Kind of 'greasy' I guess.

I wonder how healthy it is to consume ink that comes from some the insides of some sea animal's glands?

People have been enjoying it for a very long time.

Enjoying? Or just pretending to? I don't know about that. LOL. Squid ink?

Try it once. You will not be disappointed.

Well I'll think about it, but I don't think it's on the menu at most of the places I usually eat.

Most people usually stick to what they know when it comes to food and get intimidated by different things.

True, but I find it odd that this is an area where some people seem almost proud of thinking and behaving like children.

Yup and its the same with music.

I love all styles of music. Just because I eat a certain way that doesn't conform to your standards doesn't make a child. Why do you folks care what type of food I eat? These are decisions I have made for myself and I apologize if they live up to your standards.

I didn't say anything to you dude, relax.

I am relaxed. And you agreed with the poster that claim "people seem almost proud of thinking and behaving like children" because I have certain eating habits that doesn't jive with what he thinks unacceptable. He is being uncommonly rude to me for no reason.

No, he is being rude for a very good reason.

Do you know that old saying, "you are what you eat?" Well, we know what he puts in his maw, he eats shit. Any one that willingly consumes fast food is going to poison their mind and their soul, and thus be of bad humor. Even when confronted with their foul behavior.

Frankly, if I were you, and I'd chosen a Vegan or Vegetarian lifestyle, and a doctor told me I was nutrient deficient and needed to start eating animal products, I'd seek out the assistance of a professional nutritionist. You don't need that sort of advice. Everything you need you can almost always get in plant products and vitamin supplements unless you have a rare nutritional disorder.

But if Unkotare is actually admitting to eating at McDonald's? Well, there's where the ignorance and bad attitude is coming from.

I use cuttlefish ink in my Risotto Nero and Linguine Nero, one large female cuttlefish's ink sacks will last me all summer.

Any one that willingly consumes fast food ...

When did I say that? Pay attention.

Not even curious? I'd definitely give it a go.

Maybe it's my fondness for squid-ink pasta that would encourage me.

Ninja burgers - I bet they're delish!

Yeah,

On the scale of Weird Japanese Food, this doesn't rank terribly high

Looks like it's in the Blackened Cajun style of food..

Actually it looks burnt.

When I grill burgers, I make an effort to toast the buns. If one gets a little burnt, then that's the one I eat, secretly, before my reputation can be tarnished.

Indeed. These are incredibly tame. No tentacles whatsoever.

Yes, but I've never seen that before. Maybe because I've never looked. I still can't help but to think, yuck.

But then again, I eat steamed clams, and a lot of people think those are gross too. Lol.

Liverpool or Manchester Wholesale Fish Market.
