Okay look: I was raised by vegetarians. I hung onto that for a long time even after leaving the nest, until I actually sat down and thought critically and realized that, wait, I really like food, so I'm not about to swear off most of it for some incoherent hippie philosophy my parents probably first picked up during an acid trip. ANYWAYS . . .
I'm gradually fixing my ignorance of American food culture, and one of these days when I get around to it I will probably even try bacon for the first time! Meanwhile, I realize I've never had a hamburger in any form.
So where should I go? It kind of seems like I should go to McDonald's or Wendy's or something, since fast food is probably the major domain of the hamburger. Or should I wait until summer, and have one at a fourth of July barbecue? Or could I easily make one myself (without a grill, since I'm a poor kid without a backyard)? Or what? HELP ME CURE MY HAMBURGER IGNORANCE, DUMBOPHANT!!!
