Cheeseburger

A cheeseburger is a hamburger topped with cheese. Traditionally, the slice of cheese is placed on top of the meat patty, but the burger can include many variations in structure, ingredients, and composition. The term itself is a portmanteau of the words "cheese" and "hamburger." The cheese is usually added to the cooking hamburger patty shortly before the patty is completely cooked which allows the cheese to melt. Cheeseburgers are often served with lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, mustard, mayonnaise, ketchup, and occasionally bacon.
In fast food restaurants, the cheese used is typically processed cheese, but there are variations, such as cheddar, Swiss cheese, mozzarella cheese, blue cheese and pepper jack. When cheese is added to a burger the nutritional value of the burger can be changed substantially. For example, a slice of Cheddar cheese can add 113 calories and 4.5 grams of saturated fat to a burger. Other types and amounts of cheese would have varying effects, depending on their nutritional content.

Since the dawn of civilization, a lot of important things have happened. Here are lists of about the many winding routes we took to get where we are today.

Historical Contexts

Nostalgia

Everything has an origin story. From superheroes, to whatever you had for breakfast, someone sat down and said, &ldquo;I am going to make this thing.&rdquo; Or, more honestly, they sat down and tried to make something else, but ended up making the thing that you love instead. Oddly enough, that&rsquo;s how most inventions, be they artistic, scientific, or culinary, are created: by accident. Check out our list of things that you love that were <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/accidental-discoveries/amy-only" target="_blank">created by accident</a> and prepare to be shocked by the truth about Corn Flakes.&nbsp;

Chocolate chip cookies, hit songs, <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/top-50-movie-moments-of-all-time/lotterman?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">famous scenes from movies</a>, and your little sister, what do they have in common? They&rsquo;re all mistakes! And they&rsquo;re all on this very carefully curated list of things that you love that were created by accident (well, everything but your sister). The best artists and inventors have become adept at taking credit for their dumb luck, and hats of to them, because we probably wouldn&rsquo;t know how to handle the fame that would inevitably come along with inventing a game like Space Invaders or the world&rsquo;s second best dish, nachos (second only to <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/hottest-pizzas/amylindorff">pizza</a>).

Memorize the information on this list and use it the next time you&rsquo;re on a date, or if you&rsquo;re waiting on line for ice cream, but before you do that vote for which accidental invention story you love the most.

USA! USA!

You’ve probably heard the phrase “As American as apple pie.” Despite sounding so, well, American, its origins can be traced back to England. That’s because so much of American culture is appropriated from dozens of different cultures due to our cultural melting pot. So when it comes to American food, many American food staples have a history in other countries. Yet these tasty foods have become quintessential American dishes. Still, there are many foods (like corn dogs!) that originated in the USA.Some of the foods on this list came from other countries and eventually evolved into what we know today, such as the cheeseburger. Other foods on this list are designed to seem like they’re from other countries but were actually created in America, like fortune cookies. Many of the foods on this list are tied to American traditions, like s’mores with camping and hot dogs with cookouts. Often, traditional American foods are tied to a certain state or region, like&nbsp;the Philly cheesesteak or Chicago deep dish pizza.&nbsp;What are the best American foods? This list features the tastiest foods that are considered American and are deeply tied to US&nbsp;traditions. If your favorite American dish or US food specialty isn't on this list of American foods, make sure to add it to show your pride for food and country.
