The birth of burger
The name hamburger is nothing to do with ham, but comes from the German city of Hamburg. A burger was originally called a Hamburg steak. In 1889, the world hamburger frist appeared in a restaurant review in the US newspaper Walla Walla Union. It was in a phrase that was itself a mouthful: "you are asked if you will have porkchopbeefsteakham andegghamburgersteak orliverandbacon."
