Comment on Great Depression: Part Deux
python@lemmy.world 13 hours agoooh, hamburger as in, ground meat? For me a hamburger is always the round puck of meat between buns, makes more sense if it’s just the generic name for the meat itself!

Usually people say ground beef, but some call it hamburger meat, or just hamburger.

It’s because ground beef became synonymous with Hamburg steaks, which was basically a patty of ground beef. Some dude went to a Hamburg steak place and wanted to get it to go so they slapped it between two pieces of bread and thusly the hamburger was born.

Seemingly many great dishes were born from impatient diners.

Desperation is the mother of utility and hunger is the grandfather of all creations.
