Burger King Ringo Burger: A Burger King Japan Exclusive

Burger King Japan released another special product to their menu: the BK Ringo Burger.  Ringo in Japanese means apple.  This is Whooper Jr. with a cinnamon apple slice, and a honey mustard sauce.  That's right!!  Burger King Japan has a burger with an apple on it.  This is something that you are unlikely to find in America or Europe, but you never know.

Recently, Dining Dojo went to a Burger King in order to try the BK Ringo Burger.  You can purchase the burger in a set with a medium drink and a choice of medium onion rings or french fries for 490 yen (about 6 US dollars).  After tasting the burger, I was disappointed.  The burger patty itself was cooked nicely but the sauce and apple did not compliment the burger.  You would think that the tartness of the apple and sweetness of the honey mustard sauce would compliment a hamburger.  However, that is not the case with this burger.  The honey mustard sauce was over sweetened and the apple was soggy and rather unappealing.

 If you are at a Burger King in Japan, do not try this burger.  It is not worth it.
