Mindy Kaling, coming soon to a burger joint near you.
One of our favorite funny ladies has teamed up with Umami Burger to design her very own hamburger. The burger’s name? The Mindy Burger.
According to the Los Angeles Times, if you order the Mindy Burger you will receive a hamburger topped with cheese, fried onion strings, pickled jalapeño, and house-made Sriracha. A dollar from each hamburger purchased is donated to the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network. The cause is close to Kaling’s heart, as her mom died of pancreatic cancer in 2012.
Kaling tweeted “D***. The Mindy at Umami burger, nationwide! Pickled jalapeños, sriracha aioli, onion strings. $1 each to @PanCAN.”

She also shared that a lot of taste testing went into the creation of the burger. “My new burger is the real deal. Taste-tested by me and my taste-maker friends @bjnovak @TraceyWigfield @MCWarburton @CBGrandy and more,” Kaling tweeted.
Kaling has a busy month ahead of her, her second book Why Not Me? hits the shelves on Sept. 15. Season four of The Mindy Project begins airing on Hulu the same day.
