I’ve wanted to post this for a while, but just didn’t get around to it. This is a double burger from Fletcher’s in Gastonia, N.C. A full pound of beef. It was awesome. What a good day.

The globalists hate the fact that ordinary people enjoy 100% beef hamburgers every day…. which is why they make ridiculous suggestions like that we ought to eat reconstituted insect protein and like it…. uh no way! if those S.O.B.’s really believe that they can just flat-out decree that the cowboys and cattle ranchers out there will suddenly just comply, well, let’s just say they have another thing coming…. cowboy up!
I can’t imagine anyone but Joe E. Brown or Bowser being able to take a bite out of something like that.

I have an aversion to burgers piled high enough to put an entire salad between the buns along with the burger.
Here’s why: If a restaurant doesn’t spend the money to get good beef for their burgers, well, it’s very easy to cover that shortfall by sticking a whole load of other elements inside the bun to cover the flat taste of the beef.
If you really and truly want all that with your burgor — enjoy. But I always order a burger PLAIN — meat and bun, nothing more — because that’s what I’m at the restaurant for. Not a salad + a burger jammed into a single bun and making a sandwich too tall to even eat without making a mess or using implements.
Hey, different strokes…and all that. But I suspect restaurants that stuff their burgers with all sort of extraneous items — which cost them much less than good beef — to cover the taste of so-so (or lower) beef. YMMV.

I don’t think you and I are looking at the same burger.
