Culinary Curiosities: The MOSDO and POTEDO

Mister Donut MOSDO menu モスド and ポテド
Here's the kind of fusion tailor-made to bring-out my inner Homer Simpson. The MOSDO is the brainchild of a partnership between popular doughnut chain and Japanese burger franchise . Each company makes its own product under this common brand name (A portmanteau of 'MOS' and 'Donut'). The Mister Donut variety is a doughnut burger - Burger on the outside but doughnut on the inside. The accompanyinng POTEDO (A portmanteau of 'Potato' and 'Donut') are french fry shaped doughnut sticks. Christopher Butcher enjoyed this inventive fast-food combo. Now I really want to go to Japan.


MOS Burger MOSDO モスド
The MOS Burger version has a traditional looking burger patty with a doughnut hole in the middle filled with wasabi mayonnaise. Mmmmm spicy. While not as clever as its Mister Donut counterpart, it still sounds like something that could only come from Japan.

Only in Japan!

So if the burger has donuts for the bread part, it's sweet and salty at the same time. Sounds like something so deliciously weird that you have to try it at least once in your life.

We MUST take you to Sango burger. Japanese-style burgers. Hefty, meaty, messy. Guaranteed to clog yer arteries, my friend.
