A hamburger is a hunk of ground beef served between two pieces of bun-configured bread. Hamburgers are often served with a variety of toppings and condiments. It is named for the region in which it was invented, not for the kind of meat (as is often mistakenly suggested).

If you can prepare that in 1.2 minutes and sell it for one American dollar, then I'll admit European culinary superiority.
EDIT: So, the owner of the Heart Attack Grill ... he's a psychopath, right? He admits to directly contributing to his friend's death, and says that he and his restaurant have "blood on their hands" but that they've "come to far to stop now"? That's nearing Patrick Bateman levels of gruesome insanity.
I enjoy french fries on hamburgers. On rare occasions when I'm feeling like a real classy human being, I order a double or triple whopper and some fries and just shove them all on top and in between the patties. That's a good way to feel like shit.
Burger King started fucking up once they dropped the mascot commercials. How a burger company with the best fast-food burger available (the whopper), can be in third place in sales mystifies me.
Charley's Subs beats everything and should be number 1 though. Everyone should try them. :)
Not exactly a new thing, putting fries directly in the middle of the burger/sandwich. I'm just surprised it took a fast-food place this long to make it a sellable item.
Besides, I live in the land of Five Guys, so heart-stopping burgers and fries that taste good aren't too far away when I do get the occasional urge to go "burgin'."
The fast food culture is disgusting. I'm so glad that fast food is a bit costly here and we don't get these dirt cheap burgers that would fatten and kill us all.

I pity those that only have eaten the cheap pasted-together meat unjustly called döner kebab, terrozing europe with helicobacter pylori. Those proclaiming it to be doner kebab should eat real culinary dishes like Iskender Kebab. Just walk into a turkish restaraunt and order it!
I feel squeamish about the government getting involved in our right to choose, but when the 64 oz. Big Gulp ban was ruled unconstitutional, I cried a little inside.
There's a book, A Dream of Perpetual Motion, that paints a bleak future (alternate reality?) where robots are everywhere, and the industrialization of the world is slowly getting to the heart of man. Artwork is now as foul as possible to get as much of an emotional response as possible (human shit in a glass box, gore porn paintings, etc.). I feel the same is happening with food - it's like we hit a brick wall with fine wines and steaks, and thought, "How can we gross people out as much as possible? And kill them in the process?" Maybe the government shouldn't decide what we can or cannot do, but neighborhood watchdog groups should - if you see someone eating this (or a Double Down or something) throw it on the ground and stomp on it.
I challenge anyone to find a better quality-to-dollar ratio than Wendy's's Cheeseburger Deluxe-- a burger with cheese, lettuce, tomato, onions, and pickles for only $1.30! It's the best.

Doner kebab meat is the worst food ever.
Those fucking idiots in europe are ruining this food with the garbage meat they order from germany. Go to Turkey, where the dish is made with actual, good-tasting meat.

I can't believe americans consume 64oz soda drinks! If I eat fastfood, at most I drink 16,9 oz bottles, but most of the time I drink only 1 soda can.
@killerfridge: The quality of the meat completely depends on the particular restaurant. Many are shit, I give you that, especially in countries other than Germany but around my area, there are some places that actually offer damn fine meat.

This person speaks the truth! I've only had Iskender while living in Japan, but Turkish people are one of the larger non-Asian migrant populaces from what I've seen over there, so I'd like to think I've had the real thing and... my god. I love me some Japanese cuisine, but if you were to press me about what food I miss the most from my time over there, it'd be Iskender Kebabs by far. So many lunches and dinners dined on the things. I tried looking up whether it was possible to try and plausibly replicate okay in a home setting, but it seems obtuse, so alas, I'll have to save it for when I'm back in Japan or Turkey proper again.
God damn you for reminding me of these things. ;__;
