Ok I know this is very stupid of me to ask but yet I will ask.
I was out to lunch with my cousin today, we went to a local diner & ordered HAM BURGERS. ~ I was not born in U.S. I'm half Korean & Half Japanese ~ So my question is why is HAM BURGER named HAM BURGER when there is no ham to be found any where in HAM BURGER ? Can someone please answer this dumb question because it's annoying me. Once again sorry for this stupid question & sorry to all people who reads this. But I would really like to know, Thx ![]() |

Because they were invented in Hamburg, Germany, and they named them after the city.

[right][snapback]351257[/snapback][/right] Ja, das stimmt (that's right)! A Hamburger is actually what you would call someone in Hamburg in German. That's where it was invented and that's what it's called. |
