Dear Japan: Please Explain This

 
While on a trip to Japan, a friend of mine decided to visit their version of McDonald’s (because the first thing you want to do when you visit any new country, is see what their fast food joints look like.) So, while he was in there, he saw this sign on the wall. Since he knows no Japanese, he just pointed at the picture of this on the menu and said in a very loud and slow voice, "Giiiiive meeeee whaaaaat thaaaaa beeeeaaaaaar iiiiiis eeeeeaaaattiiiiinnng." But since the girl behind the counter wasn’t deaf (she just didn’t understand English,) he was served the quadruple Big Mac instead — which is also only sold in Japan.
 
Which means the mystery remains: What the hell is this? And why doesn’t my McDonald’s sell one? And why is that bear enjoying the shit out of it in the background? It looks like a steaming fried creme-filled donut with chocolate on top. But since this is Japan, it’s probably an eel and garbage sandwich covered in salmon semen. If anyone knows what this is, please enlighten us.

    It says “Garakoro”

    I have no clue what the fuck it means though. It looks like the cream croquettes that they eat and taste like shit.

    You can order big macs with extra patties in North America. Me and my buddies decided to push the physical limits of ourselves and we ordered a double big mac with 10 extra patties each.

    Could it be, like, donkatsu – a panko-breaded and fried pork cutlet? The sauce looks kinda donkatsuey.
    Also, may I have one?

    Sorry, I can’t explain the bear.

    It’s actually pronounced “gura-koro”, which is an abbreviation of “guratan korokke” (gratin croquette). The “gratin” is a shrimp / mayo paste deep-fried in croquette form.

    The quadrupule Big Mac is sold all over Asia; it’s not limited to Japan.

    Others have already said what it is, but my guess would have been some sort of fried tofu burger.

    Those things are common in japan. It’s filled with potato-paste-stuff. It’s disgusting. The real prize is the Mega-Tomago, a burger sold for a limited time only that was basically the Mega-Mac (quadruple big mac) but with three beef patties, an egg patty and bacon. they won’t let us have it in the u.s. because tey don’t want us to be happy.

    You morons! I was totally in Japan, like, all the time, and u’r all totalz wrong about teh burger. It’s actually a “Rape Naking” burger. It’s a deep fat fried mix of shrimp and shredded used school girl panties, with a fresh Bukkake sauce, all served with humiliating-defeat-by-being-bombed-into-oblivion-by-a-capitalist-regime-which-then-turned-your-country-into-a- twisted-version-of-itself-complete-with-the-installing-of-our-worst-export-mcD’s-fries.

    Pretty much tastes exactly like you think it would.

  13. Noelimits80 says:

    Actually it is called a Koroke Burger (mashed potato, cabbage and katsu sauce, all in a sandwich)

    A croquette you idiots is a french grilled cheese sandwich with egg.

  14. McChill says:

    Looks like Danish Camembert to me. Fried cheese and cranberries jam….
    So the bear loves it.

    “quadruple Big Mac “… looks like a double big mac from that picture…… we have those here in Canada

  16. nodoczerodownteaser says:

    its a Jizzimoto

  17. Drew says:

    Yep, it is a croquette. Mashed potatoes of sorts, sometimes with veggies or meat mixed in, then breaded and deep fried. The sauce is “katsu” (spelled right I think), which is sort of a sweet brown sauce.

  18. The Baroness says:

    You’ve got to admit, that bear’s got great taste.

    Ebi-Burger, which translates to Shrimp-burger. It’s a hamburger made out of a fried patty filled with shrimp, the crust is made out of panko’s, and the suace is this sweet and sour stuff that I can’t describe. I believe it is made out of plumbs, but it has a completely unique taste only found in Japan. Hope this helps.

    idiot, it’s a croquette–a panko breaded, fried patty of basically mashed potato. not a donut… it’s very common in japan. and it’s probably covered in katsu sauce–a mixture of ketchup and worcestershire sauce and other ingredients. not chocolate… stop being so racist…
