Burger King is bringing on the bizarre burgers once again with their new “Kuro Ninja,” a burger with a black bun and long, thick strip of bacon protruding out of one side. We’re not sure if ninjas ever stuck their tongues out at their enemies, but if they did and they were somehow magically transformed into a burger, this is what they’d look like.
The Kuro Ninja, or Black Ninja, is Burger King Japan’s newest sandwich. It has a pitch black bun colored with bamboo charcoal (nothing new), but this time, a huge slab of “King’s Bacon” juts out from the sides, making it look as if your delicious burger has sprouted a pink tongue. What’s more, that tongue is supposed to be that of a ninja…something like this:
The burger also comes with “wide-size” hash browns, onions, lettuce, mayonnaise, and a blackish brown Chaliapin sauce. The Kuro Ninja will be on sale starting October 25 for 680 yen (US$6.93). Customers who purchase a medium or large size set meal will receive Kuro Ninja character logo stickers!
Aren’t they cute?
Set your tongue on this friendly little raspberry-blowing burger while you can starting at the end of October. Like all gimicky Burger King entrees, this one will be gone faster than a ninja can stick out his tongue.
