How to Eat a Burger

General

burgers
You know when you’re eating a big juicy burger that’s perfectly cooked (medium rare) with the perfect number of pickles (four) and just the right amount of spread? It’s during these special moments when you realize all the stars have aligned in your favor, colors appear brighter and more vivid, you start thinking maybe your life is complete… and then your burger falls apart. It’s a buzz kill. Well, my friend Amanda taught me this simple burger-eating trick: Eat your burger upside down. The top bun is almost always more substantial than the bottom and holds up better as a base. It doesn’t get as soggy so your burger stays together the whole way through. Isn’t that smart?
