A hamburger (also called a hamburger sandwich, burger or hamburg) is a sandwich consisting of one or more cooked patties of ground meat(beef, pork, turkey, chicken, etc.) usually placed inside a sliced hamburger bun. Hamburgers are often served with lettuce, bacon, tomato, onion, pickles, cheese and condiments such as mustard, mayonnaise, ketchup and relish.

Hamburgers are usually a feature of fast food restaurants. The hamburgers served in major fast food establishments are usually mass-produced in factories and frozen for delivery to the site. These hamburgers are thin and of uniform thickness, differing from the traditional American hamburger prepared in homes and conventional restaurants, which is thicker and prepared by hand from ground beef.

In India, urbanization has led to people opting for fast foods and burger becomes first choice among all. Kids are fascinated by the idea of toys and free goodies that are available with these foods. McDonalds always comes up with one or other toy and you can see kid crowd during the day.

BURGER AND OBESITY

When it comes to fast food, there's a class line between fast food for people who can afford better and fast food for everyone else. Then there is the food that is just as bad for you but served by a waiter at restaurants with wine lists. You likely have no idea how many calories – not to mention grams of fat and sodium -- you are consuming when you're eating at some of the best restaurants in town.
