A little while ago, a food chain in France released burgers based on Star Wars. I love gimmicks and this is my kind of gimmick: the almost inedible, processed kind with only a slight relation to the original thing they were promoting!
Because if Darth Vader was a food, he'd totally be cheeseburger with black buns...
Personally, I think the “Dark Vador” burger looks pretty neat. BY THE WAY, fun french fact, it’s spelled Vador instead of Vader because vader would be pronounced va-day in French. Why they call him dark beats me… because dark does NOT mean dark in french. But they definitely don’t have the “-rth” sound. Fun trick, make a french person say a bunch of th- words.
I’m very much disappointed in the Jedi Burger, which has 4 extra days of promotion (wtf). Marshmallows? Clouds? Don’t know what that white stuff is. Also, it should be green with a voice chip inside to represent Yoda. Just sayin. Also, that idea is now officially copywritten. Suck it, McDonalds.

Okay, any reason that bun is BLACK? Just because they call it a “Dark Vador” did they burn the darn thing for effect? Ewww.
I think it’s food coloring. Yea black burger buns… does not read freshness. HAHA, they are so stretching it with the tie-in.
Hahaha this is actually really funny. Can you imagine seeing somebody eating the Dark Vador burger, though? It might look a little worrisome.
I guess eating a hamburger with marshmallows is a common thing?! Marshmallows are not the first thing that comes to mind when I think Jedi…..for some reason…..
i know, right? i really wish I could watch the meeting where they decided that…
All the healthy green lettuce and tomato in the Dark burger looks a little out of character – shouldn’t it be stewed spinach or something?
Yoda looks quite unimpressed with the Jedi burger too!
Reblogged this on and commented:
I know this isn’t quite my usual fodder, but I did think these guys might have taken the whole sci-fi spin off thing too far…
I think they definitely missed a trick not styling the jedi burger on yoda (I think those are onions?).
And whoever says they’d be concerned if they ever saw someone eating a Dark Vador burger, I think that’s what they were going for.
