Why Do They Call It a Hamburger if Its Beef

Jun 1, 2011

a smug little rat! 😏🐀

A burger is encased in buns. I can tolerate one-bun burgers, even if I disagree on principle, but there has to be bread.

Stop taking things you Americans even invented and loving them totally up!

These are hamburgers.

This is loving ground beef (flavoring)!!!

yeah I eat ass Mar 14, 2005 only people who enjoy my posting can replace this avatar	I've never heard someone call ground beef "hamburger". I've heard "hamburger meat", which is fine because it is the meat that goes into a hamburger, but most people just say ground beef until it is in burger form.

Doghouse Oct 22, 2004 I was playing Harvest Moon 64 with this kid who lived on my street and my cows were not doing well and I got so raged up and frustrated that my eyes welled up with tears and my friend was like are you crying dude. Are you crying because of the cows. I didn't understand the feeding mechanic.	It's a colloquial term, next question

I'm going to take this opportunity to post a quiz at the NYT website that asks you what you call stuff then guesses where you grew up.

I don't mind people using supper and dinner interchangeably but woe to those who call lunch dinner. I think the last of them are dying out, though.

It's called ground beef, ground chuck, ground sirloin, ground round, but never hamburger.

Unless the grocery store has already shaped it into patties, in which case it is called hamburgers.

I don't know what decade/backwater you've been hanging out in OP.
