to me a good burger is about every component

without a good patty, it sucks. without good toppings, it sucks.

For me, I want no lettuce or tomato. Melted Swiss cheese, onion, and mushrooms are all I need. No lettuce, no tomato, no American cheese, no mustard, no ketchup, no mayo. Beef patty, melted Swiss cheese, mushrooms, onions, on a fresh hamburger bun. That’s it. That’s all I want.

Leafy greens work as roughage in our bodies. Lettuce and other leafy greens help to calm and clear the digestive tract of toxins and waste. Though it's not a pretty side effect, it is essential for your long-term health. You are probably going to get bowel or colon cancer because if your lack of roughage in your diet.

So this thread showed back up at the top of the catalog, I had forgotten I’d posted in it - simply politely reminding you to watch your mouth/fingers when attempting to “dunk” on someone by calling them a philistine (as if that’s a high brow insult, lel, it usually exposes the user as one as it is), while at the same time either making the egregious mistake of mixing up compliment and complement, as in you implied that the lettuce and tomato you put on your burgers makes flattering remarks to your patties (or perhaps more innocently, it was a typo but you’re too stupid to notice details). Imagine my mirth when I see that you have called me a racial slur, written as if you’re pronouncing it within the ingroup that uses the term “nigger” but without a strong rhotic, to which I don’t belong. I’m confused as the nature of this insult considering I’m not a member of that group and don’t consider it an insult to be called such, and you also commanded me to fellate your penis, which is extremely gay of you. And, considering you think I am black, you are, without sarcasm, commanding, what is in your imagination, a black man to suck your dick. Don’t you think that’s a little strange, unless you happen to be a confident gay man who happens to prefer patterns of deep melanin enrichment? I don’t mean to single out your sexual preferences in particular, but this is an example of a style of insult posting that really seems to have the opposite of its intended effect. I freely admit to phoneposting this as a valve for my ‘sperger’s so that I can function less robotically at a social event tomorrow evening, so thank you for being such a good hearted imbecile to allow me to parse out your misguided aggression while enjoying a few laughs at your expense, and considering the likelihood that poster won’t see this, if any anons have a laugh at my expense, we’ll then we’re doing well lads

I don't mind the lettuce and tomato. But I HATE having to eat them together with the meat in one bite. ESPECIALLY if the salad dressing is seeping onto the meat. DISGUSTING.

That being said: what's wrong with asparagus, artichoke, endive, cabbage, beetroot, hop shoots, spinach or pumpkin?

I HATE the combination with sugary cake, I much prefer actual bread or baked potatoes on the side.
