Current Events > Why do people like burgers that have all 4 veggie toppings?

(+) Yeah! (+)

Lettuce, tomato, onions, pickles.

1 or 2 sure, but all 4?

Are you even enjoying the patty at that point? All those toppings combined overpower the flavor.

You sound like a coward

I don't know why people get burgers then pile on a bunch of extraneous stuff to where the meat might as well not even be there.

For me only cheese is preferred. Yellow Mustard or Mayo as toppings.
Bacon is okay sometimes but rarely and that's it.

you sound very weak willed

I can't think of any meat where you would need 4 different veggie toppings at the same time just to enjoy it.

Personally I'm a hamburger minimalist.

That's kinda the point. Beef patties aren't very flavorful on their own, which is why they're seasoned. Think of pickles onions and tomatoes as just more seasoning.

I love a burger loaded up like that. Good stuff. Especially garden fresh tomatoes in the summer that we get here in abundance in my farmers paradise of the Midwest.

For burgers, it is cause I dont like the taste and need the vegetables to make it taste good.

a good burger doesn't always need the veggies, but they're nice to add.
I think onions and pickles are almost a necessity, which is why I mince onions and pickles and add them to the beef before cooking it. lettuce is great, its basically crunchy water. bacon is great too, its like spicy lettuce.
tomatoes? get out. they're neither a fruit nor a vegetable. please leave and never come back, worst food on earth.

I mostly only like cooked onions

I'll put pickles on it too if the onions are raw though

I'll never understand onion enjoyers. There is literally nothing good about an onion.
They taste awful, they smell awful and once they get in your food the taste and smell linger even if you take them off.

I usually draw the line at lettuce or pickles.

I agree lettuce and tomato generally subtract from the textural quality of the burger and they add nothing. It's not the amount of toppings that matter but these two definitely suck.

sounds better than veggie burger

I like LTOP, but if I think of it I'll leave out the lettuce, because it can make things slippery.

A big part of it for me is temperature control. Cool veggies keep the hot fresh beef from burning you. Also what kind of flavorless burger are you eating that gets overpowered by that?

raw tomato does

that's a terrible ingredient for burgers. lettuce is good like 20% of the time if it's stays crispy enough

lettuce is always bullshit but the rest own

Sounds like you're either eating shitty burgers or have shitty tastebuds.

I always remove lettuce, tomato and onion. Pickles can stay. Mind you I still eat the vegetables, I just don't want them on the burger. If I want salad, I'll eat salad.

I don't like raw tomatoes in general so I'll leave those off. Lettuce, onions, pickles are all good on a burger.

Pickles are a no for me. But I like picking them off myself for some reason. And accidentally missing one or two. Feel naughty

lettuce pickle and onion are all a necessity for me. Tomatoes soggy the sandwich too much for me

Wanting to know why people enjoy different foods is a perfectly valid question. If someone thought cilantro was disgusting wouldn't they want to understand why others like it?

I can't think of any other meat where you need 4 different veggies at the same time to enjoy it or enhance it's flavor.

Lettuce and onions are good burger toppings. Pickles and tomatoes are not.

I hate LTO on a burger but love them in a gyro

Onions and jalapeno peppers are the only veggies that have any business being on my burgers.

Ramen can have multiple ingredients but you usually don't stuff them in your mouth all at once and the noodles/broth are the main. Tacos and burritos sure I'll give you that but that can come with cheese, rice, beans, sour cream, guac in addition to the veggies. The experience is designed to be a mass of flavors.

The main attraction in a burger is the patty and adding too many ingredients takes away from that rather than compliments it imo.

It's a combination of all that that adds to the flavor, IMO.

Plus they're all good for you. Lettuce is debatable depending on which type they use.

any burger place not dogshit mcdonalds garbage calls it an LTOP
and only ppl with toddler palates are ignorant of that

make burger taste better and have better texture

if it overpowers instead of complements youre a weak palated skill issuer

If it's the iceberg lettuce sure.

I like the veggies because it adds a nice crunch to the burger (if the ingredients are fresh). If I eat out, I will usually get a plain burger. I am not the biggest pickle fan, but sometimes I am in the mood for them.

What about when you order a burger with pickle and then the pickle turns out to be a quarter of a whole pickle sliced length wise

What's that about

trade the pickle for pineapple, beetroot, egg and bacon

Proportions my son, proportions.

Give me all the things on my burger
