    Plus, didn't Jesus command us not to be vegetarians in the Bible or something?

    Incidentally, it's home time soon and I want a big, juicy burger.

    You must enlighten me with the knowledge of this secret art.

    The bacon must be cooked to the right level of crispyness, not chewyness. Then you must strategically choose where to bite. Smaller bites help.

    Fries are cooked in vegetable oil which generally isn't supposed to have hunks of hamburger meat floating in it. That said, yes, I'm aware there may be some small amount of beef juice residue on the buns (unless they're not toasted on the same range as the burgers, I dunno). But if I thought that was an unacceptable risk, I couldn't go to any restaurant that served meat. Basic sanitation generally keeps meat products separate from other things anyway. I'd go full strict vegan, but you people don't want to see me more angry and bitter from lack of cheese.

    You didn't mention it was the art of making bacon totally unpleasant.

    There's a serious lack of guacamole on that burger.

    Is it, like, impossible to have a decent conversation on this forum or what?

    I mean. Guacamole? Really? What is wrong with people?

    The sesame seeds are a valid frame of reference, dolts.

    lol... in one of my favorite Varouj FB posts, he talked about how he went into a burger place with their advertisement and asked for them to make his burger look exactly like the picture in the ad. :p

    Sure fried onions and raw red onions are nice, but what about grilled onions? Not at the same time, of course.

    I disagree. The fork is out of focus, and there's no way to determine how much forced perspective there is, or how large the lens and aperture are, or how far the camera was from the hamburger when the photo was taken. I mean, were the fork in focus and directly next to the hamburger, presuming it's roughly a "normal" sized fork, I'd think we'd be able to reasonably estimate the size of the hamburger.

    But this photo? I don't think we can. My gut feeling, though, is that it looks like a relatively "normal" sized double cheeseburger.

    If those are standard american cheese slices, the diameter of each patty is probably about 5 - 5.5 inches. I'm a fan of sliders, so in my view that's a big hamburger.

    A reasonable guess, but we have no assurance that those are in fact standard sized american cheese slices. Cheese is often cut to size for sliders. Tomatoes also vary in size, as do onions. Pickles tend to be more standardized, so I think that the size of the pickles can give us a good estimate of the size of the burger otherwise.

    If it's a standard sized hamburger bun, it might be 4 inches in diameter, with the patties slightly larger, so again, 5 inch diameter patties is a reasonable guess.
