Because black cheeseburgers weren't weird enough, Burger King is now serving up red cheeseburgers in Japan.

The Aka Burger ("aka" means "red") comes in two varieties - Samurai Beef and Samurai Chicken, both making use of red cheese and red buns.

Tomato powder was added to give the ingredients their angry colour, with the burgers also coming with a red hot sauce made from miso and hot pepper and going on sale from 3 July.

According to the Wall Street Journal, Burger King claims to have also improved the recipe of its black burgers, which looked pretty intriguing when they arrived last year, but in reality were the stuff of nightmares. The same black buns, cheese and sauce will be used, but now deep fried aubergine has been added.

Stay stuned for purple, green and blue burgers, and maybe in 2017 some sort of mind-melting rainbow burger.

That actually looks pretty disgusting. Who in their right mind would come up with that crap?

Japan.

The whole country is the king of /r/wtf. They even made an unofficial subreddit rule stating that "Anything from Japan in /r/wtf is cheating."
