You won’t have to go to Japan any longer to get Burger King’s famous black Kuro Burger. Burger King is bringing a black bun Whopper to the U.S., just in time for Halloween.
“Our U.S. guests have been extremely curious about the bun flavors they’ve seen introduced in Japan and other countries, so we saw the opportunity to bring them an equally unique experience,” Eric Hirschhorn, Chief Marketing Officer for Burger King North America, said in a statement. “We tailored the flavor of the black bun to the American palate with A.1. sauce, a flavor this country loves, and we’re delivering it in a way that’s never been done before by baking it into the bun. It may look Japanese but it tastes like America.”
Japan’s Black Burger was unveiled in fall 2014 and was such a hit that a red burger was launched over the summer. Perhaps the red aka Burger could make its way to the U.S. for Valentine’s Day?
