Kangaroo-emu burger has some hopping mad

By Around the Web

(NEWS.com.au) — IT’S 80 percent kangaroo and three per cent emu – but will this ultimate Aussie burger fly with customers?

Made with meat from the animals that grace our national emblem, the Coat of Arms burger goes on sale today and boasts an all-Australian list of ingredients, from bush herbs to quandong.

After a taste test this week, locals and tourists gave it the lick of approval – before they knew what was in it.

“I think it’s great,” said Tasmanian tourist Grace Eaton, 20, who had a mouthful before being told what was in the $14.50 burger.

“Wow! I probably wouldn’t have eaten it if I knew what it was,” she added.
