Burgers are a popular dish originating from American cuisine, typically consisting of a cooked ground meat patty, often beef, placed inside a sliced bread roll or bun. Common additions include lettuce, tomato, onion, cheese, and condiments like ketchup, mayonnaise, or mustard. Variations may feature chicken, turkey, veggie patties, or plant-based proteins, catering to diverse dietary preferences. Burgers can offer nutritional benefits such as protein from the patty and vitamins from fresh vegetables. However, their healthiness depends on preparation and ingredients. Excessive use of processed cheese, sugary sauces, or high-fat meats can increase calories, sodium, and unhealthy fats. Choosing whole-grain buns, lean protein options, and plenty of vegetables can make burgers a more balanced meal. While often considered indulgent, thoughtful ingredient choices can help transform this global favorite into a healthier option.
