Blue buns: ‘Mutant Burger’ sends diners into apocalyptic feeding frenzy
Just when you thought foodie trends couldn’t get any weirder, they have.
Australians have just taken their recent burger obsession to next level crazy.
Behold the blue bun ‘Mutant Burger’ that’s taking down under diners by storm.
Its bright blue colour is an assault on the eyes and also the taste buds.
The burger is brainchild of Australian restaurant chain Ribs & Burgers.
The epic eat consists of triple chilli, fried chicken and blue cheese sandwiched in an electric blue bun.
“Only the strong will survive the apocalyptic flavours of this bespoke burger,” a representative from the restaurant told Yahoo7.
Boutique burgers are the latest ‘food porn’ trend to sweep the nation, following on from doughnuts and cronuts.
Recent burger crazes have included ramen burgers, Pokemon burgers and most recently the hotdog-burger hybrid.
Earlier in the year Franken-scientists managed to manufacture a meat-free burger they claim was so delicious even the most discerning modern-day caveman would be left salivating and satisfied.
The carefully crafted burger had been five years in development.
The makers claim the burger looks, smells, tastes, cooks and even bleeds like the real deal.
The burger aptly named the “Impossible Burger” is not only setting social media on fire but it’s also a potential game changer in modern dining.
The new burger was launched this week in New York City at David Chang’s Momofuku Nishi restaurant, sending foodies into a frenzy.
The burger also boasts positive environmental impacts as it has the potential to reduce society's dependency on livestock.
“Because we don’t use animals, we can make it using 95% less land, 74% less water, and with 87% less greenhouse gas emissions," the company website states.
“Oh, and without any hormones or antibiotics.”
The burger was a hit in NYC.
