Rust on the ground electrode of new spark plug, is it normal?

Hi guys, I bought a set of DENSO VXEBH27 spark plugs, which is specific to FRS/GT86/BRZ. And I found some rust on the ground electrode, as the picture shows. Will it damage the engine? What should I do with it? Many thanks.

Pretty sure it'll burn off. Don't worry about it

While it's probably not an issue, I agree that you should just return them and get the wonderful, cheap, stock plugs.
