Halloween Black Chicken from Domino's | Halloweek 🎃 Day 5 with Aaron, Sara, and Jim

[@andrewspears89]

Those would sell well in the States

[@Graywylfen]

They definitely would here

[@lukewbez]

Just in Slovakia and now back in the UK, and I don’t think I’ve seen any companies go as wild as they do in Japan for their Halloween products 😅🎃

[@CriticalEatsJapan]

They are few and far between, but when they go in, they go all in ;)

[@JaniceYamanaka]

That reminds me of something we had about 5 years ago at Knott's Scary Farm. They did smoked shole chicken wings and covered them in a black buffalo sauce. They called them bat wings. The food dye they used actually turned the meat sort of a bluish-gray. They tasted fine, but they really looked gross. Megan did the review for those. Best line from your review - "I've got bigger rocks than you..."

[@CriticalEatsJapan]

That actually sounds pretty awesome!👍

[@jasonlynch2919]

Wow spooky. Looks cool. 2 yrs ago Dempster here in Canada did Halloween black buns for hotdogs and hamburgers. They used charcoal for them. Good video.

[@CriticalEatsJapan]

Nice!👍

[@bobbicatton]

Very clever use of charcoal seasoning. Perfect for Halloween👍🎃

[@CriticalEatsJapan]

Yes! And they tasted much better than they looked too👍

[@walterlewis1029]

Paul this looks like Lump Charcoal Chunks.

[@CriticalEatsJapan]

Definitely!

[@xcalibertrekker6693]

Bet it tasted pretty close as well.

[@rschrader]

I wonder what’s the discussion was like when someone first thought this up…

[@CriticalEatsJapan]

I bet they were all on board ;)

[@xcalibertrekker6693]

Yea the weirder the better for them, they don't care if anyone buys it like in the west.

[@PhantomOfDarkness]

I would love to eat something as hideous looking as that just for the novelty alone!

[@CriticalEatsJapan]

For sure!👍

[@BarbHowe-tm8vi]

That's crazy😂 like the coffin box, though. 🧛

[@lynnsenger9950]

Holy coal! I'm not sure I could get past the visual of those enough to try them.

[@CriticalEatsJapan]

Tasted better than they look ;)

[@Adam.Short.]

Edible Charcoal 😂

[@xcalibertrekker6693]

Must be cheaper then squid ink which they use most of the time.

[@jovahsangel]

Great review. Wow! Interesting idea, (charcoal) popcorn chicken. I'd try to recreate that. From the looks of it, they would be interesting to have as a fun snack (aka, a funny game penalty😂) during Christmas parties, too.🤔

[@CriticalEatsJapan]

Christmas? As lumps of coal? Haha

[@xcalibertrekker6693]

I would agree with "interesting".

[@jasoncallan]

i would try it

[@brendakrieger7000]

Happy Halloween🎃☠️🦇

[@ancientflounder]

Dominos gets an A for presentation, but an F for cost performance. 😂

[@CriticalEatsJapan]

Especially on Aaron's ;)

[@roberthamilton1301]

Thanks for the Entertainment

[@wegottafishdude]

BOO everybody 🤘🏻😎🤘🏻

[@FenianAn1mal]

funny...the chicken from dominoes USA looks like that every day of the year... :P Sounds that they taste better than they look so theres that lol Interesting halloween treat. Great video as always, I love the halloweek series!!

[@CriticalEatsJapan]

Haha, yeah, they weren't bad. Just a novel item to add to your pizza order. Thanks, been a hectic week ;)

[@larryoakbro4779]

So cool

[@drewsfoodreviews]

That's some weird chicken but it looked like it ROCKED!

[@Graywylfen]

Dominoes does nothing for Halloween here

[@CriticalEatsJapan]

No? They are a little more experimental here ;)

[@xcalibertrekker6693]

Yea weird looking gimmicks that look sketchy like that are avoided in the US unless it is a promo or very cheap.

[@xcalibertrekker6693]

@@CriticalEatsJapan Little, guess it depends who you are comparing them with. At least they are trying to come up with something, they rarely ever do that now in the US as it's to risky.

[@slopknockers9641]

Marinara OR BLOOD!?!?! 😱😱😱

[@alfonzoc_Father_Misfit_Batman]

👍

[@wrfleet]

I was honestly expecting you all to spit it out. It looked awful.

[@CriticalEatsJapan]

Looked bad, tasted fine ;)

[@DillonTrinhProductions]

Charcoal nuggets

[@littlesmallworld123]

Those would do better as a "lump of coal" for Christmas! Not sure if that's well known in Japan, but they definitely look like lumps of coal you'd find in your stocking.

[@CriticalEatsJapan]

I don't think anybody would get the reference here.

[@KellyMarieRowe]

No thanks 😂😂😂😂. Package is cute though

[@pierrelewis6819]

Well, besides from the box none of that screams out Halloween. I truly believe that it is pretty good chicken. this works better in December, based off of the concept, of coal in your stockings. I can see if they were in the basic shape of a skeleton, because dead guy and coffin, and I can see this working a little better because, cute April fools joke. Tricking people thinking that you eating coal, but it's just chicken. speaking of coal this also works for independence day. This also works with lava, as in, it looks like you're eating lava. Overall I'm saying, this works for everything else, except for Halloween.

[@CriticalEatsJapan]

The box was pretty cool. And yeah, I don't really think the Japanese have the concept of coal in a stocking.

[@NessaRossini...]

Bear poop nuggets. 🎃👻

[@CriticalEatsJapan]

Tiny bear, but yeah ;)

[@returnofthepokemaster]

Not the best value, but a very unique novelty snack. I was expecting more of a different flavor for the black coating.

[@CriticalEatsJapan]

I saw some ads for them later and even mine seemed kinda small :(

[@laraq07]

Gimmicky. Not particularly appealing, tbh. The sauce is 'supposed to look like' blood, I'm guessing???

[@CriticalEatsJapan]

I guess. The whole idea is pretty novel with the coffin and all ;)

[@rosew1]

they sounded very crunchy and looked gross.

[@CriticalEatsJapan]

Looked bad but tasted fine ;)

[@truth4004]

They didn't look good and they looked small.

[@CriticalEatsJapan]

You are correct on both accounts ;)
