5.0 out of 5 stars Small book..., February 1, 2009
This review is from: Hamburger: A Global History (Reaktion Books - Edible) (Hardcover)
but with a big heart. The story of the hamburger starts out in Europe, comes to American, where is it developed, changed, made into the hamburger we know and love, then it spreads out into the world. That is why the subtitle is - A Gobal History. From Northern Germany it migrated to America where it appeared on the menu in German restaurants yet, after Philadelphia's Centennial Exposition in 1876, it soon became a common food item on all menus.
And the rest is history. McDonalds, Burger King, Wedny's, Wimpy, Big Boy, and, of course, White Castle. Hamburgers went well with fries or cola or onion rings but no matter what the side dish hamburgers had become king. BOW BEFORE THE BURGER!
Still, I prefer hot dogs.
Anyway, this book is small but holds a ton of information and I suggest it for anybody who enjoys food and the history behind it.
