               What is defination of Hamburger? A Hamburger or Burger is a sandwich consisting of one or more cooked patties or ground meat, usually beef, placed inside a sliced bread roll or bun. Hamburger are often served with cheese, lettuce, tomato bacon, onion, pickles, candiments such as mustard, mayonnies, ketchup or special sauce. Part of the controversy over the origin of the Hamburger is because the two basic ingredients, bread and beef, were prepared and consumed separately for many years before their combination. After various controversy in the 20th century, including a nutritional controversy in the late 1990's, the Hamburger or Burger is now ready identified with the United States and a particular style of cuisine namely fast food.
