    Hamburger

    Object » linked to 376 games

    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).

    To pickle.. or not to pickle.

    Does anyone else just HATE pickles on their hamburgers?  Now, I love pickles.  I'll eat an entire jar of them...  but put them on a nice juicy burger and you have pure hell!!!

    To me a pickle on a burger..  is like..  just eating a plain pickle.  I can't taste the hamburger anymore...  just the pickle.

    So...  anyone else.. have this problem?

    Dude, pickles make the burger.

    I like pickles generally, but i don't like them on my burgers at all. So usually i remove the pickles, or order a burger without pickles from the start.

    I'd agree with RabbitKarrot, but I wouldn't throw up in my own meal. I'd look at the person/people in disgust for a couple of seconds then continue eating. Really though, pickles are just one of those things you need to make a burger.

    I am a hamburger with pickle kind of guy.  The pickles add a satisfying crunch to the burger as well as some extra juice when you bite in.  Also, look at a hamburger without pickles; it just does not look right.

    Pickles in the burger are fine, a pickle spear on the side is THE BEST.

    Ahem. As a Le Cordon Bleu student, I've learned that a pickles are not simply put in meat dishes to taste good. Their purpose in any meat dish, such as a hamburger, is to cut through the gaminess of the meat with acidity.

    A burger without pickles is like a computer without a keyboard, the pickle is essential for a healthy and sexier looking burger.

    They are good to a point. Eventually you get to a point where the pickle flavor overpowers the burger. Thats when things go down.

    I agree that pickles ruin a good burger, but if we're talking about a fast food burger, they're required. It's more of a texture thing. The patty is usually too soft and spongy, so the crunch of the pickles is needed.

    Burgers are one of the few places where I do like pickles. Really complements the meat IMO. But then, I'm an odd eater who doesn't like to put much else on a burger, aside from requisite lettuce and tomato.

    The only reason McDonald's puts a slice of pickle on their burgers is because, in the health departments regulations, the inclusion of the pickle is the tip of the scales balancing the burger from 'real food' and 'confectionery'. True story!
