Which burger would you prefer?-Cultural differences?

[Stopshoutingtv]

Option A: Bbq burger on a burger bap with cheese, ketchup, salad, wedges and corn on the cob

Option B: Grilled burger (no bap etc) with plain pasta and salt

We had Dds friend over for lunch after Dd asked her if she wanted to come for burgers and toasted marshmallows. She was quite confused about the burger as has it like option B at home, aside from at McDonald’s.

Which burger do you prefer and can anyone guess which country we’re in?

That's hilarious 😂
We brits are weird when it comes to bread !

Ooohh, I love a burger, chips and beans 😋.

Otherwise, option A but only with sliced gherkins and mayo too 😋.

We really are 😅

They’re sold as burger buns… which is clearly wrong, as they’re barms 😉.

I think what we can conclude from this thread is that serving plain pasta as a carb instead of potatoes seems to be pretty common in lots of countries, and perhaps we are the weird ones in the UK…

But they can’t be barm cakes if putting a burger on 🤔 only if making a butty…preferably a chip barm

Italy?

A burger cooked on a BBQ goes on a roll with cheese and no other option here 😂

I'd ban all the revolting slime too @MrsAvocet - it isn't allowed in my house.

That's just insane.

A hamburger is a beef patty on a bun, with or without accoutrements.

A meat patty or beef burger is a similar flat beef or pork thing that can be served with a baked potato and salad if you're a Nana in the UK in 1981.

I didn’t say it was. He was just a child from the south coast who really liked a burger with plain pasta. I’ve met a lot of children from all parts of the uk that really like a plain burger and plain pasta! Probably more than those who like it in a bun. One side of my family are not from the UK and where I’m from we tend to have the burger in its own so it didn’t sound that odd to me!!

I am going to confess that I have been known to eat a burger accompanied by a packet of Super Noodles 😱
AKA "all I could find in the cupboard".

France and I would prefer B.

To me they’re burger buns!

Italian? I had chicken in breadcrumbs served with spaghetti with a tomato sauce at an Italian restaurant recently.

Not 🇫🇷
Would you be ok with it being that dry though?

Not 🇮🇹 but that dish sounds good

My kids had bun burgers with pasta today OP 😂

🤣

Hungary? Poland?

Chicken Milanese, easy dish to make at home too.

Are you in the States?

Burger bun is it not ? I don't know about the burger thing maybe its just what the kid likes

Yes me too.

I would eat that.! I don't have a bun/roll/bap I usually just have a burger and chips or wedges at home . Or if at a bbq Burger with just cheese on top, i find the burgers and bread too much.

A obviously.

Although in Japan they often served hamburger which was bunless, cooked in a sauce and served with rice. I wasn’t a huge fan.

I would expect an undressed burger and the cook to ask cheese or no cheese. Each person can add the condiments and vegetables of their choice.

Why would everyone want the same thing?

Yep. Very normal to have the burger without bun in France, accompanied by pasta or veg, although we would call it a “steak haché” not a “burger.” It’s pretty common.

However, even in France, “burger” involves a bun, cheese and ketchup, salad etc. Usually served with frites.
