    A 

    hamburger, or simply burger, is a food consisting of fillings—usually a patty of ground meat,


    typically beef—placed inside a sliced bun or bread roll. Hamburgers are often served with cheese,
    lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, bacon, or chilis; condiments such as ketchup, mustard,
    mayonnaise, relish, or a "special sauce", often a variation of Thousand Island dressing; and are
    frequently placed on sesame seed buns. A hamburger patty topped with cheese is called
    a cheeseburger.[1]
    The term burger can also be applied to the meat patty on its own, especially in the United Kingdom,
    where the term patty is rarely used or can even refer to ground beef. Since the
    term hamburger usually implies beef, for clarity burger may be prefixed with the type of meat or meat
    substitute used, as in beef burger, turkey burger, bison burger, portobello burger, or veggie burger.
    In Ireland, Australia and New Zealand, a piece of chicken breast on a bun is known as a chicken
    burger, which would generally not be considered to be a burger in the United States; Americans
    would generally call it a chicken sandwich, but in Australian English and New Zealand English
    a sandwich requires sliced bread (not a bun), so it would not be considered a sandwich.[2][3]
    Hamburgers are typically sold at fast-food restaurants, diners, and other restaurants. There are many
    international and regional variations of hamburger.

    Etymology and terminology


    The term hamburger originally derives from Hamburg, the second-largest city in Germany; however,
    there is no certain connection between the food and the city[4] (see History below).

    By back-formation, the term "burger" eventually became a self-standing word that is associated with
    many different types of sandwiches, similar to a (ground meat) hamburger, but made of different
    meats such as buffalo in the buffalo burger, venison, kangaroo, chicken, turkey, elk, lamb or fish
    such as salmon in the salmon burger, but even with meatless sandwiches as is the case of
    the veggie burger.[5]

    History
    Main articles: History of the hamburger and History of the hamburger in the United States

    Hamburg steak has been known as "Frikadelle" in Germany since the 17th century.
    The "Hamburger Rundstück" was popular already in 1869 and is believed to be a precursor to the modern
    Hamburger.

    As versions of the meal have been served for over a century, its origin remains obscure.[6] The 1758
    edition of the book The Art of Cookery Made Plain and Easy by Hannah Glasse included a recipe in
    1758 as "Hamburgh sausage", which suggested to serve it "roasted with toasted bread under it." A
    similar snack was also popular in Hamburg by the name "Rundstück warm" ("bread roll warm") in
    1869 or earlier,[7] and supposedly eaten by many emigrants on their way to America, but may have
    contained roasted beefsteak rather than Frikadeller. It has been suggested that Hamburg steak
    served between two pieces of bread and frequently eaten by Jewish passengers travelling from
    Hamburg to New York on Hamburg America Line vessels (which began operations in 1847) became
    so well known that the shipping company gave its name to the dish.[8] Each of these may mark the
    invention of the hamburger and explain the name.
    There is a reference to a "Hamburg steak" as early as 1884 in the Boston Journal.[OED, under "steak"] On July
    5, 1896, the Chicago Daily Tribune made a highly specific claim regarding a "hamburger sandwich"
    in an article about a "Sandwich Car": "A distinguished favorite, only five cents, is Hamburger steak
    sandwich, the meat for which is kept ready in small patties and 'cooked while you wait' on the
    gasoline range."[9]
