The home country to pitch-black burgers can now boast another strange sandwich, due out later this month. The Orbi Yokohama Museum has taken the bamboo-charcoal buns and inserted an entire deep-fried frog in between them — also adding some lettuce, a chili sauce, and an ingredient a spokesperson describes as “a small amount of soy sauce-flavored chicken.” It costs about $8.40, and it comes with a drink. A frogwich, essentially!

The burger actually promotes a new exhibit featuring poisonous creatures from around the world, including spiders and the always culinarily iffy puffer fish.
