May is National Hamburger Month

Seriously. Search Google for "National Hamburger Month" and check out the hits. There's a lot of them, including one from Johnny Rockets, a hamburger chain that opened in June of 1986 on Melrose Ave. in Los Angeles.

They have a list of thirteen (what a coincidence -- Thursday Thirteen material, except that I wouldn't dare plagiarize their list) interesting facts about hamburgers. Here's a couple of items from that list.

  • The hamburger made its début in America at the St. Louis World's Fair of 1904.
  • The cheeseburger was invented in 1924 by chef Lionel Sternberger of Pasadena, Calif.

    • This leads me to one question... Why did it take twenty years for someone to think of putting a slice of cheese on a hamburger?
