Seriously?!


Okay, there is definitely something wrong with the world when a restaurant, like Red Robin, can advertise AND sell a Banzai Burger...

The new Banzai Burger is "Hawaiian" style with grilled pineapple and terriyaki (which is "Japanese"). Does anyone else see something wrong with that? I certainly do and, of course, I'm going to tell you why.

The word "banzai" is a phrase associated with Japanese soldiers during World War II. If I remember correctly, the Japanese and Hawaii didn't have a very good relationship...

Seriously people!

That is so wrong I can't even begin to explain it. And it has nothing to do with being politically correct. There is a very obvious line between being finicky and being just plain wrong.

And this is just wrong.

Seriously? Seriously?!

Seriously!
