    Nope. Tons of places make them. I have no clue what these people are on about. Just fake outrage, I guess.

        There’s a place I know in Saskatchewan, that makes 3/4 lb burger patties out of good quality chuck, serves them with two pieces of bacon, couple onion onion rings, on two pieces of inch thick garlic texas toast he fries on the griddle in mayonnaise and bacon fat, fancy mustard and some spicy sauce he makes himself. You’ll never have anything like it, I’m pretty sure he’s smoking the hamburger before grinding it. Embarrassing five guys easy for price and quality, and it’s just some guy owns a dive bar with no staff but him.

          Damn that sounds good! I love hole in the wall places like that. I miss my old favorite spot in Seattle, 206 Burger Company. It wasn’t the fanciest or super over the top, but they just hit right and they (at least used to) have pretty good prices too.

        I’m always interested in polls and stats. But I’m fairly confident that this one would be boring. Just your run of the mill buns, patty and whatever fillings are most popular. Usually a mix of lettuce, tomato, pickles, onions, cheese (altho some might see cheese as a cheeseburger thing and think that’s not a burger)

          Tbf, the distinction (if one is to be made at all) is in the prefix, not the suffix. “Burger” is an acceptable shorthand for both hamburger and cheeseburger, so it could be either. If one is to differentiate, it’s necessary to say the prefix (or to specify toppings to be added or excluded based on what the menu says is standard for this location, i.e “no cheese, no onion, add fried egg.”)
