The only times I've eaten at a Denny's restaurant in Japan was for breakfast. That is, until I discovered the Hotel Asia Center of Japan with their buffet breakfasts for about ¥900.
Japan Today has posted a story about some rather interesting ingredients that are being added to Denny's burgers.
They wrote:
TOKYO —It would appear that Japan is getting more and more firmly entrenched in the euglena craze. These little algae (particularly those from Ishigaki Island) have been determined to pack a nutritious punch carrying around 59 different kinds of nutrients from vitamins and minerals to amino acids.
We recently sampled these little guys in a cup of delicious yogurt, which was creepy at first but not a big leap since yogurt is all bacteria anyway. But would the public also go for these little microorganisms being added to a patty of grilled red meat? American diner chain Denny’s is wagering “yes” with their euglena hamburgs only available in Japan from the end of this month.If this sounds enticing to you and if you want to read the full story, go here.
