It started off as a joke

myBurgerLab posted a photo of a burger with taugeh (beansprouts) yesterday, 17 January, that was supposedly created with ChatGPT...

... and taugeh-haters lost their sh*t

Noticing that the burger shop's co-founder RenYi Chin also avoids taugeh in his food, the team decided to challenge their boss to create a burger with the controversial ingredient

myBurgerLab shared a video of RenYi taking up the challenge to incorporate beansprouts into a burger, complete with a patty, and it lowkey looks good.

The Taukeh Ipoh burger features a crispy fried chicken thigh dipped in a new General Tso sauce, inspired by the Asian-American cuisine favourite.

The sauced-up patty is placed on a bed of teppanyaki-style stir-fried taugeh and cabbage, topped with tangy mayo and sesame oil, before being sandwiched between two fluffy bamboo charcoal buns.

Even if you're not keen on the taugeh, there's something new for everyone to try this season

There's a new Taukeh Tso burger featuring the same ingredients — a crispy, fried chicken thigh and sauces — but instead of taugeh, it comes with a juicy pineapple slice.
