When you get a hamburger, do you cut in half before eating it?

If you are served metal cutlery with your hamburger, it's not a hamburger. Hamburgers are fast food. A normal restaurant that serves them is being pretentious and anyone who orders a hamburger there is a snob, whether they cut it in half or not.

If I ever went out to eat with someone who cut their burger in half, there would be no second date and I would go "no contact" on them. I would pretend to go to the bathroom and just leave them at the restaurant. Such a clear sign someone is a psychopath when they do something like this. There are unwritten societal norms on how to eat certain foods. That is why most people go out to eat for first dates. Any sane person would raise their eyebrows at something like this and pray they make it home alive.

There is nothing wrong with sexing a tranny. When you travel as much as I do, in fact, a sexual encounter with a tranny is inevitable. However, all available evidence, save the mom jeans, suggests Obama isn't at all dainty. Donald Trump--alleged New Yorker--eats pizza with a fork and knife. Proof positive dantiness.

Do all you prissy fools use a knife&fork for your chicken wings???

Hoo, boy... a typical LCR dilemma:

1) admit cutting a hamburger in half, to eat less and/or more slowly/mannerly: have your masculinity or American patriotism questioned.

-or-

2) say you don't, and risk being lumped in with obese slobs, or-- worse-- hobbyjoggers.

My reply: I'll cut burgers larger than 1/4 lb (if I ever get served one-- I'd usually avoid getting that big a wad of ground beef). But I'm old and don't care if people give me a nasty label by doing so.

yes, I cut it in half to determine if it's cooked to my liking (medium) otherwise it gets returned. There's nothing worse than eating an overcooked or undercooked hamburger.

Never heard of it. But I could imagine it happens.

Steve and Rojo, man up, unhinge your jaw, and take that bad boy for all it is worth.

I usually do. I find it more pleasant to eat it that way, and also provides a good visual check on the burger being sufficiently cooked.

Any hamburger worth eating should REQUIRE cutting in half prior to eating it otherwise it is too small.

I have never, ever cut a hamburger in half. I have never even considered doing so. I can't imagine the thought processes that would lead to that decision.

I often try and eat the entire thing without cutting it, only to have amassed a large pile of napkins and regret afterwards.

Never do it unless I'm sharing it for some reason. Sometimes the restaurant will have cut it in half prior to serving.

The number is well below 50% (unless your counting anyone who has ever done it rather than someone who does it regularly).

I typically get two cheeseburgers when I go to Five Guys. This allows me to eat the two halves of my meal separately without cutting a burger in half.

I used to love bread, any kind with any thing or by itself, then I decided to lose 60 pounds. Most of the hamburgers at good places have a lot of bread, including the big pretzel rolls, which I used to love; no more.

Either have burger inside thin toasted rye bread slices or ditch the bread entirely and have the burger wrapped in lettuce. Whether you want / need to cut it should be left to your preference or the experts here.

Never forgot this story when I read Iacocca's book about 20 years ago:

"Remember the most memorable hamburger you ever had?

Lee Iacocca does. In his best-selling autobiography, he lovingly recalls an absolutely scrumptious burger in almost the same detail as he does the Ford Mustang.

He was lunching in the company's executive dining room with Henry Ford II, who ate almost nothing except hamburgers. Ford remarked that no one, not even his personal cook, could make a burger like Joe, the Swiss-Italian chef there. Curious about the chef's exceptional talents, Iacocca went back to the kitchen after lunch to find out the secret of the perfect burger.

The chef was happy to oblige. He went to the refrigerator and pulled out an expensive hunk of prime New York steak. He stuffed the meat through a grinder and formed it into a patty. Then he slapped it on the grill.

"Any questions?" Joe asked."

If that hamburger is definitely bigger than how long you can extend your jaw then yes its okay to cut it and eat it in portions. However if its your standard fast food hamburger then no

What kind of BBQ had hamburgers? I think you meant backyard cookout.

I don't cut my hamburger. I could see it being just as messy an operation.

what? why would anyone do that?
