Dark outfits. Throwing stars. Burgers? When you think of ninja, you probably think of their lore. You don’t think of Burger King. You might now.
For a limited time, Burger King is rolling out the “Black Ninja”. As NariNari points out, the burger uses black buns like last year’s Premium Kuro (Black) Burger. At the time, Burger King said the concept behind it was “irrationality”.
The concept behind this latest effort certainly can’t be stealth, because there’s nothing sneaky about a black bunned burger with a Whopper patty, hashed browns, and a big slab of bacon.
The Black Ninja is priced at 680 yen ($6.75) and will go on sale October 25.

Can we get a take away truth on this one, @chrisjager ?
Hahaha. All expenses paid business trip to Japan for one article, sounds like a good idea to me.
They managed to make bacon look unappetizing. 🙁
All it would take would be some white make-up and you’d have a close approximation to a Gene Simmons burger.
Well that’s definitely the least appetising thing I’ve seen all day.
More like leftover from last year.
This is disappointing. They really should have got the experts in on this.

No, really. This article sucks.
So… this is the first step towards the pretty patty?
Yeah, I’m honestly surprised I still remember that episode…
