I'm a Burger Girl in a Burger World


To be clear, I'm not the one who can offer much in the way of recipes and cooking advice. I can't even properly offer reviews or general foodie snobbery--I'm just not capable of it. What I can offer is this: my massive, unadulterated love of burgers. I love this foodstuff more than is wise, more than is necessarily standard operating procedure, and more than is--to be honest--uncreepy. I had to set limits for myself during a stressful school period a couple of years ago. "Self," I said to myself, "this has gotten out of hand. I'm cutting you off." I came up with a new rule then--and it may seem hyperbolic to you now but it is honestly the only version of this rule I could manage to live by at the time--that I couldn't have more than one burger a day. My self-control has grown since then and the rule I try to live by now is no more than one burger a week. I often fail.

So my contribution will be mostly a discussion of the burgers I eat/make/am given. I feel passionately about this subject, I'm not gonna lie. I have Thoughts on preparation of the meat, toasting of the bun, toppings, sides, and so many other things. And because of my peculiar limitations, this kind of post will probably happen only once a week at most.
