Burgers

Burgers, often referred to as hamburgers, are a popular type of sandwich consisting typically of a cooked patty made from ground meat, usually beef, placed inside a sliced bun. The patty is commonly grilled, fried, or broiled and may be served with a variety of toppings including lettuce, tomato, cheese, onions, pickles, and condiments like ketchup and mustard.

The burger has evolved over time and has extensive variations around the world, including different types of meats (such as turkey, chicken, or plant-based alternatives) and regional toppings. It is often served with sides like fries, salads, or other accompaniments. The hamburger is widely associated with American cuisine, although its origins can be traced back to various influences, including German immigrants who brought the concept of the “Hamburg steak” to the United States.

Burgers have become a significant part of modern fast food culture and are available in many dining establishments, ranging from fast-food chains to gourmet restaurants.
