McDonald’s Hong Kong has introduced the Batman burger, but it’s not what you think it is.
There have been images of a black burger with a black bun and black cheese, but that burger is from Burger King Japan; the Batman Burger looks like a normal, double-decker indulgence.
The ingredients found in the Batman burger are two beef patties, a mystery sauce, yellow cheese, a fried egg, onions and steak sauce. The Batman burger is also paired with cheesy fries with bacon bits sprinkled on top.
No word if the Batman burger is coming to the United States, but if you’re in Hong Kong you’re good to go. Check out McDonald’s commercial for the Batman burger in the video below.
Speaking of the black burgers, McDonalds and Burger King are both releasing their versions in honor of Halloween.
According to Metro, Burger King Japan updated its Kuro burger to feature a dark bun and cheese. McDonald’s Japan is releasing its burger called the Ikasumi, or squid-ink.
The Black burger has been around for some time. The Blacklisted Coffee Jakarta in Japan has been serving a black burger since 2012. The restaurant’s assistant manager James Nelwan told the Wall Street Journal it has two black “kuro” burgers: Kuro Pearl and Kuro Diamond.
The Blacklisted kuro burgers feature black buns, beef patties with pepper, black cheese and a black sauce made from squid ink. The restaurant also uses charcoal to get the blackened color on its buns. Check out more about the Blacklisted kuro burger here.
