The Deep-Fried Black Frog Burger Is A Bit Scary

Orbi Yokohama Museum Cafe

Yep, this is real.

Continuing the trend of truly strange things coming out of Japan and weird burgers popping up all over the place, a museum has decided to offer a complete deep-fried frog sandwiched in a black bun as a promotion for their poisonous frogs exhibition.

Luckily they didn't use the toxic toads in the burger.

The scary sandwich costs 1,000 Yen, which is about £5.50.

Unlike some black buns which are dyed with squid ink, this one uses bamboo charcoal to get the deep and distinct colour.

If you're still hungry for frog-themed dishes after eating a whole one, they also have an amphibious dessert on offer.

The "frog egg sweet dish" uses almond jelly and a jelly frog to mimic spawn at the edge of a pond

This isn't the first black burger to surface in Japan. McDonald's and Burger King have both released their own versions of the dark-bunned creations in the Far East.

The beef scraps that become hamburger meat are mixed communally during processing, and according to a study done in 1998, the average fast-food burger contains meat from 55 different cows, but that number can increase dramatically. And that’s not only gross, it’s dangerous: the more cows involved, the higher chance of E. coli contamination. We suggest asking your butcher to grind it fresh for you.
