Has anyone tried this black burger? My son wanted to try it, but they ran out of buns. Have to wait till next week when they bring more. Wonder how the bread tastes :-[ :sad1:
-
no i havent..but i heard someone say that it turns your mouth black also
-
We don't have a Burger King in my town. I don't like them anyway. I saw the ad, but I'm not interested, especially if it's artificially colored.
-
I was never a big fan of gimmick fast food. This is no exception. It does not look appetizing to me at all, so I think I will pass and stick with just a regular cheeseburger on a white bun.
-
I think it looks gross. I know people who have tried it. It has so much dye in it as well as "A1." I just cant eat something like that. I am also trying to stay away from fast food places much these days.
-
I will pass, it doesn't appeal to me at all.
-
It doesn't look appetizing at all! I stick to the regular Whopper!
-
I'ts kind of intriguing, but I won't be buying one. We don't have a Burger King in our town and I doubt that I would travel 30 miles for a black bun.
-
I don't think it's anything special.... It's just added color. It's like green beer during St. Patty's Day; the beer still tastes the same, just a different color than normal. And like green beer, I've heard the black whopper gives you green poo when it comes out the other end (the "black" is probably several different colors, so the green shows up after it's been digested).
-
Isn't the black burger already a "thing" in another country? I could be wrong...
Regardless, I will not be trying it for 2 reasons.
1) I'm trying to eat healthy and lose weight, and a fast food hamburger is not on my menu...
2) It looks gross and there has got to be a TON of dye in it, which doesn't sound appealing to me at all.
-
Think I will pass on this. It doesn't look appealing to me.
-
no Im not a fan of A1 so wont try these
-
i agree with what most others are saying.....does not look appetizing at all. We're not big fast food people and this is not making me want to go eat at Burger King. I'd like to know what their marketing people were thinking with this one.
-
I have not heard of it but it does sound disgusting. It sounds very unhealthy.
-
any burger is unheathly but good oncve in a while
-
I heard of them but haven't tried them.
-
The buns on the burger looks burnt. :pumpkin:
-
??? Im passing. not a fan of black food.

I am with the majority of the FusionCash members who have replied so far.
The black bun does not look appealing to me.
It is loaded with dyes and such that are not healthy to eat.
It is a gimmick that doesn't entice me to eat at Burger King.
-
No looks gross, I wouldn't try it :bad:
-
I don't think it looks very good but I have not tried it.
-
It doesn't look good enough to eat.
-
No I dont think Im gonna try it. Why would they make a bun black? Thats just weird. (old and stale?) LOL
-

You are correct... The black burger originated in Japan and brought over to the states for Halloween. In Japan, however, the colored burgers are not used as a Halloween gimmick; Halloween has only been recently celebrated in Japan, mostly because of their admiration of American pop culture instead of deriving from the religious / Christian All Hallows Eve (the day before All Saints Day). The BK burgers in Japan are colored because they have such a small advertisement budget in that country, so BK uses these gimmicks solely for advertising. Now BK in Japan is offering red burgers (where everything, including the bun and cheese is red)...
-
Supposed to taste like A1 steak sauce or something. Has an interesting look to it that is for sure. I can see the appeal for kids for sure. Well hope your son gets to try one.
-
It's a definite pass for me. A black burger would not be appealing.
-
No...that sound gross to me!
-
Well, I am with the rest of you the color just turns me off. It does not look at all appealing.
-
i agree with some of you about the black burger at burger king, my brother came to me and asked me if i ever tried it i said no ,he told me that he tried it and said that someone said that if you eat it you will poop green.what is up with that?
-
I'm sure its the coloring since black licorice does the same thing. If course it could just be there is licorice root in the bread dough. No guarantees as i haven't really researched it as i have no reason to eat at bk anyways.
-
It tastes just like the regular one, they added food coloring. It's the same junk, tastes good but bad for you. lol
-
Nah, these don't look very appealing. I'll stick to the regular ones.
-
It looks gross
-
I like the entire concept of the black burger for Halloween - just something to break the monotony.
They have a similar burger served at some fast food chain in Japan all year round.
I don't eat at Burger King, or eat Burgers really, but I hope some people are having fun with it... probably kids :)
-
I havent try it yet, im gonna have get to a bk before the promotion ends
-
I just don't get the black bun thing.
-
Black buns never seem appetizing to me. Don't really like any color in my buns
-
I think it looks yucky! i don't even care to try it~
-
Actually I'm a person don't want to try new thing that much. :) But I would like to know what it taste like.
-
I wouldn't eat one if you paid me YUCK!!
-
most disgusting thing i have ever seen. Can't believe someone would eat this. I don't eat at Burger King anyway last time I did I got sick from their food
-
No way will I eat that disgusting bun. I have had enough of burger King several years ago as a mystery shopper to last me a life time thank you.
-
I never liked the look of the black whopper. Burger King is wasting their money with this product. I always get the regular whopper. I hope next yea they come up with something a better for Halloween.
-
I think that I will pass on this one, I don't want to eat anything that is full of junk
-
No!! it does look disgusting.I think it first started in Korea or China.
-
Haven't heard of the black burger till now.
-
i won't because it changes your poo :notworthy:
-
I don't like the black bun and will not eat it.
-
It doesn't look good to me. I see the appeal for big fans of steak and such I guess.
-
Not going to make a special trip for it.
-
We do not have a burger king in our small town BUT I would not eat it anyway!!! It does not look good or appetizing at all! I mean its kinda COOL for Halloween and all but EWWWWWWW!!! And if it turns your mouth black that would not be very appealing either! lol I can see someone smiling with black teeth and lips!
-
I've never heard of this. I haven't been to burger king in a while. Usually I get their chicken sandwich instead of a burger. Maybe I will try next time I go out to the store. Thanks for telling us.
-
I think its disgusting who would want a black bun ill still try it though lol ??? ;D ;D ;D ;D
-
No thanks. I think I'll pass on that one no matter how cool it looks.
-
I haven't tried. it just doesn't look right to eat with the bun being black.
-
Its looks really cool, but i will not go as far as eating it..
Although,it maybe ok....
-
I have not tried it either. I don't eat fast food burgers very often.
-
I haven't tried it, and I don't want to, because it doesn't look appetizing.
-
I saw someone eating one of these burgers and it didn't look very appetizing. I guess I'll skip it.
-
All that good color had to be bad for your insides. I saw this ad on Tv and I have to pass on this one
-
Would never wanna eat at that place. To much in healthy food there.
