Burger Day

The hamburger is the most American food. Not apple pie. Not hot dogs. The hamburger. The average American eats three hamburgers per week. In Oklahoma, the onion burger was invented during the Depression when they stretched the meat with onions. In Connecticut, they debate whether the first hamburger was served at Louis' Lunch in 1900. In Texas, they put brisket on a burger and call it perfection. Nobody agrees on what makes a perfect hamburger. Everyone agrees it exists.
