Also anyone else that isn’t a ameri-burger-ican can chip in too.
You, beloved reader, observe the image above for a second, paying specific attention to the bready-squishy bits known as the “bums”, I’m sorry I mean “Buns” - no that’s wasn’t a slip-up I did that on purpose!
ahem
So back to the main topic, I trust by now you’ve looked at the above image and noted that the bready-squichy bits are labeled as “the crown” for the more rounded and breadier half thats just absolutely caked with seeds whereas the half of the bun that’s less flat than me is called the “heel”…for some reason.
With these two important bits of knowledge firmly embedded in the forbidden yogurt that is your brain, I wish to pose upon you a very important and intimate question…
DO YOU, AMERICAN - OR SOME OTHER NATIONALITY THAT HAS THE MISFORTUNE TO BE ABLE TO PURCHASE THEM - EAT YOUR HAMBURGERS WITH THE CROWN TOWARDS THE GROUND OR WITH THE HEELS OF THE BURGER RESTING ON YOUR THUMBS?
TRANSLATION: DO YOU EAT WITH HEEL UP OR CROWN DOWN?
Also feel free to share any nice burger recipes or cooking tips, it’s summer after all. The time to grill
What kind of sick fuck is flipping a burger 180° before biting into it?
Sometimes the bun heel doesn’t have pleasant proportions or have the structural integrity to support the rest of the burger. In such cases, you either flip it over or risk the tomato slices and gerkins falling out the side and getting mustard on your shirt.
Edge case, the exception that proves the rule
it’s a propa reason
Now if there’s someone who flips it from the jump because they prefer it upside down
