Mark this as one of those ideas that probably shouldn't have made it out of the test kitchen.

Burger King is reportedly set to bring its black-bunned "H A.1.LOWEEN" Whopper to the United States according to a leak posted to Reddit.

The burger made its debut in Japan back in 2014 and has seen modest success in the Asian region. The American version will come with A.1. steak sauce, hence the "H A.1.LOWEEN" name.

Burger King In Japan Goes Black
TOKYO, JAPAN - SEPTEMBER 18: Black hamburger buns are seen at a Burger King restaurant on September 18, 2014 in Tokyo, Japan. The black burgers, one a Kuro Pearl at 480 yen, has black buns and cheese smoked with bamboo charcoal and black sauce made of squid ink. The other, the Kuro Diamond at 690 yen, comes also with lettuce, tomato, onion and mayonnaise. The burgers are available from September 19 through early November in Burger King restaurants throughout Japan. (Photo by Keith Tsuji/Getty Images)

Don't worry, the American version won't have the same black cheese as the Japanese edition. Also outlined in the leak was a (stop me if you've heard this one) Pumpkin Spice Oreo Milkshake.
