lol that was pretty stupid/funny

The name has nothing to do with the meat. It has to do with where the inventor came from - Hamburg, Germany.

were out of ham

Because that's the beefburgers general universal household name.... DUH

Try ordering a beefburger to see what you get.

Get the next available flight 2 Germany.
They make real hamburgers there.

If your coming from europe to America, it's one of those strange things we Americans do. If you want a sandwich with ham in it, you have to ask for a Ham sandwich. It's a common problem Americans have in Europe as well.

Hey now that's a very good question, do you think the likes of macdonalds andburger king could be done under the trades description act ??

the hamburger was created or invented in the 40s by a man in hamburg germany

The word "Hamburger" comes from Hamburg, Germany. It is a common misunderstanding that Hamburger is a term combined of Ham and Burger (Burg is german for castle, Hamburger the german term for people or things from Hamburg). But this misunderstanding established the word "Burger" for different kinds of "Hamburger" in the English language (such as Cheeseburger or Turkeyburger). In Germany, local traditional snacks are often named after the place of origin, like the Frankfurter (also known as a hotdog), the Berliner (a type of "doughnut") or (Nürnberger) Bratwurst. In Hamburg it was common to put a piece of roast pork into a roll, called Rundstück warm, although this is missing the "essence" of the modern hamburger, which is ground meat. Yet another theory however states that also in Hamburg, Germany, meatscraps, similar to modern ground beef were served on a Br?tchen, a round bun-shaped piece of bread. It is said that German immigrants then took the Hamburger to the United States, where the bun was added, creating the modern Hamburger.

if u ask for hamburger in Wal-Mart u get a pound of mince. it's just different in different countries.

THE WORD "HAMBURGER" IS DERIVED FROM A GERMAN NAME FOR A MEAT WITH BREAD SANDWICH. THE IDEA CAME FROM A GENTLEMAN NAMED HAUMBORG, OR SOMETHING TO THAT AFFECT. WE AMERICANIZED IT TO SAY HAMBURGER.

Is there any big difference between a hamburger and a beef- burger other than the name? Hamburger is beef. Anyway, anything tastes good with enough catsup on it.

If you ordered it at McDonalds you probably got a horseburger...

i assume because the beefburger in a bun was invented in Hamburg?

I asked for a hotdog once, and someone set fire to me, oh fuch

thats the way it comes..if you dont want a bun say so..

becasuse they were out of pig

The same reason when you ask for chicken fried steak...You dont get chicken..

cause its a burger you eat with a hand

because ham burgers are made of beef, everyone knows that! God!

Because that's what a hamburger is in the USA. IF you want ham on a bun, order a SPAM burger.

The beefburger was invented someone from Hamburg, though in a different shape. The British stuck it in a bun and called it became a Hamburger. The Americans flattened it out into what we eat today.

hahaha.
Roisters do a lovely Breakfast Burger with a pork burger in it.

And everywhere but in New York it comes with mustard too. Yuchh.
