| Kuro Pearl, Burger King |
Well, I have tried Burger King's Black Burger, the Kuro Diamond while here in Japan. I had it earlier today and all I can say is, meh. There are two types of Black Burgers, the Kuro Pearl and Kuro Diamond. The Pearl is basically a blacked version of a cheeseburger, the Diamond is a supped up version with lettuce, tomato and onions.
Kuro means "black" in Japanese and there is the rub. The bun wasnt as black as the picture presented and I the cheese was runny as the black itself was coming off and getting over the tomato. It was lettuce was in pieces and not a big piece of lettuce as presented in the promotional pictures. Now I am one who doesnt believe in the prevalence of media and always take each and every advertisement to heart.
It tasted like a normal burger. The black doesnt do anything to the taste. I dont think that it was supposed to. The black dye is made from bamboo charcoal and tastes neutral. Overall, except for the black color, it tastes just like a Burger King burger.
