Burger Guide, Meaning , Facts, Information and Description
A burger or "burger sandwich" is a type of sandwich which consists of a hamburger bun or similar type of round bread, and a primary filling of a meat patty or vegetarian alternative ('veggie burgers', 'vegiburgers' or, alternatively, 'garden burgers' usually contain patties made from vegetables, nuts or soy protein). The name comes from a shortening of "hamburger".
Burgers made with beef are known as a hamburgers. Other meats such as chicken or fish can be used and a sandwich may contain a portion of meat that is not formed into a patty. Some alternatives to hamburgers are marketed as being heathier than their beef based competitors, and a niche market exists for exotic burgers such as buffalo burgers.
There are usually other accompaniments or condiments piled onto the meat portion. These might include any combination of cheese (a cheese burger is not a burger made primarily from cheese, but rather a hamburger with a slice of cheese in it), vegetables (lettuce, tomato, onion, pepper, pickles) and sauces (mayonnaise, ketchup, mustard, barbecue sauce, etc.)
There are two independent definitions of what differentiates a burger from a sandwich:
- Burgers use processed meat (or imitation meat), regardless of the type of bread.
- Burgers use a "burger" bun, regardless of the filling.
