McDonald's comes up with Angry Birds burgers

On the occasion of release of 'Angry Birds' movie in China, the global food franchise McDonald's has launched its 'Angry Birds' brand of burgers in its restaurants. The burgers feature either red or green food coloring in the buns and, reportedly, look weirdly inedible. It has had mixed reactions on McDonald's fans.
This has been reported in nzherald.co.nz dated 26 May 2016.

It seems the colorful sandwiches include the "Naughty Green Pork Burger" with a pork patty, fried egg, lettuce, jalapenos, and "mystery sauce". Then there is the "Super Red Burger" - this features a double chicken sandwich with Louisiana-style hot sauce, a fried egg, and cheese.
These innovations are the latest in a long list of freakish food that has been put on trial overseas. Examples are KFC's edible nail polish, a black burger that had been launched by McDonald's Japan, and a 'pizza bomb' - a creation of a South Korean restaurant.

South Korea develops a new bomb - the pizza bomb

This is the latest in bombs and it explodes on your table!! It is a creation of South Korea and has taken the world by storm and can be categorized in the category of "things you're very likely to burn your tongue on". Named as the "bomb pizza", it is a bubble of dough that is crammed with sauce, cheese and various toppings. It is being served at The Place in Seoul.
This has been reported in nzherald.co.nz dated 3 May 2016.

The pizza is cooked right on your table. Once ordered, it comes as a giant ball - which can be pink or black and is brushed with alcohol and set alight. The ingredients are cooked at the diners' table. In order to avoid any melted cheese catastrophes, the waiter will use scissors to cut the top of the bubble and reveal the pizza within.
Obviously, innovations are what draws the customers and, such innovations will certainly pay rich dividends. Like the pizza box pizza created by a pizza outlet in Brooklyn - this New York pizzeria has done way with the cardboard container for a box and has made it entirely of pizza.
