Happy
National Cheeseburger Day! Yummmmmmy! Too bad I am unable to eat these
delicious entities! Now whenever I hear the word “cheeseburger” I immediately
think of one of my old running buddies, Stephanie, who when we were running in
the early hours of the day would insist the birds singing were teasing her by
saying “cheese-burger.” If only they would have brought us one…
A
cheeseburger is “a hamburger topped
with cheese.” Apparently in it’s traditional form, the slice of cheese is
placed gently across the meaty patty, like a mother placing a blanket over her
newborn child. Okay, so maybe not so delicately, but you get the point! The
practice of adding this cheesy layer began sometime in the 1920s, gaining
popularity throughout the next decade. It was Lionel Sternberger who is said to
have invented the cheeseburger. Interesting that he has “burger” pretty much in
his name, eh?! And just to tease you, here’s an image of a delicious, mouth-watering
McDonalds hamburger...
