User blog:Eugoth/The nature, properties and attributes of a burger detailed

A Brief Explanation
Welcome to my blog, ladies and gentlemen. Here i am describing in details the common properties and attributes of a burger according to me and my opinions about this common fast food. I'd like to note that i am not 100% certain about the quality of speech of my grammar and that errors should or must be common during this blog and also note that this is all made up in my mind and has no scientific base at all.

The bun
The bun is the most important part of a burger. It makes the burger stable and able to be holded, thus having 2 of them, and also gives the burger the quality of the taste of bread. The bun may have sesame seeds, often used to make it look more attractive for the eyes and the taste, but also make a great combination with the bun so both can be well put together when independent. The bun of the burger is one of the most important, if not the most important, part of the burger, making up all of it's flavourous structure and opening doors for a better taste. Without the bun, the burger wouldn't be a packed and compacted fast food, but rather a separate snack, with all of it's components spread apart and hard to eat all together. The other components of the burger, such as mayo, would spread around and possibly make a mess with your shirt and fingers. For a burger to be a burger, you need the bun, it's an indisposable component that is the core of the burger advancement in the world

The beef
Along with the bun, the beef is one of the base of creations of a burger. Without the beef, it is not a burger, but rather a miserable sandwich. The beef is made out of meat, which by itself is incredibly tasty and has many proteins and fat. The beef caan come with various sauces over it, there's mayo, ketchup and mustard, and even a special sauce used for the sole purpose of covering the beef, called BBQ sauce, very often used in barbecues. The beef is probably the central part of the burger and the other ingredients are just to give some extra flavour to the burger's composition. In my opinion, the beef is great. A burger can have more than one beef and it can fit anything you put. A lot of ingredients can do well with the beef, for example, the lettuce, that has a color contrast and a flavour contrast, giving an incredible response of taste. But that's not all, the beef can be composed of more than just bovine meat. It can be a chicken beef or a tofu beef, for the vegetarians. It is infact, an accessible component of the burger all kind of people can enjoy and think about it without disgust.

The lettuce
How could we talk about the burger without talking about the lettuce? It is one of the few vegetables of the burger, if not the only one. It may be a tasteless piece of garbage when eaten alone, but in combination with other ingredients, such as the beef, it can make an enormous difference in the taste of the burger, and also a healthy ingredient for so much fat that it contains. The lettuce is an interesting ingredient: It is tasty when clustered with others, is an important source of proteins, offers almost no fat at all, and, often displeased by many, in a burger it can make the whole difference between Good and Fabulous. If you don't like the lettuce in the composition of a burger, in my opinion, you are losing all the opportunities to make it a great and lovely burger with more options of flavour. The lettuce also makes a great color contrast, as stated above, with the beef. The heavy dark red with the soft green makes not only pleasure for the mouth, but for the eyes. You are indeed going to have a good time with this ingredient in your burger, if well placed and well done.

The cheese
Hohoho, look at who came at our conversation. The delicious, the loved, the all-in-one ingredient that is enjoyed worldwide; The cheese. This masterpiece of humanity was created thousands of years ago and until nowadays it makes everyone's taste. It can be used in a pizza, a lasagna, eaten by itself or in spaghetti. But how it fits in a burger? First: The cheese is one of the most simple ingredients of a burger: No matter where or how you put it, it will always be a good option for a good looking, tasty burger. It has evolved over time to better function with our taste desires and in a burger, it gives the perfect taste of milk, salt and spice. It's importance is as great as having it's own name on a burger, called Cheeseburger. The cheese helps the burger on being variable in vitamins and minerals important for the human body functions, and it's aspects make it indisposable to make a good burger, along with other ingredients. The cheese is pretty often loved by the community overall, elevating a burger with it to a higher status, taste and price.

The mayo
It's not a solid ingredient, neither an instrument, but it's indeed one of the best and tastiest. It's the mayo. It's a white, salt-ish liquid that makes a great difference in a burger. Mayonnaise is important for a lot of things in the burger, including making it more wet and edible, allowing a further better digestion of your loved fast food, at the cost of being a huge source of fat and calories. The mayonnaise is a sauce, but more than a sauce, it is a key feature of the burger that lets it become less dry and have a wondrous taste alonge with beef. Without the mayo, eating large burgers, with more than 1 beef and many ingredients, would be a challenge and would definitely need a drink or something to make the burger less dry and more comfortable. With the mayo, you can dispose this drink away and let it's nature passively make the burger better. Be warned that placing a lot of mayo in your burger may make it a unstable, sloppy piece of meat, so make sure to not a lot, not too little, but at the correct proportion to make it an enjoyable sauce for your meal.

The tomato
Tomatoes are great, Like the cheese, they can be used for a large arrangement of ingredients, including the tomato sauce and the ketchup, an optional ingredient in the composal of the burger. But tomatoes in a burger can be great and bad. A small slice of a tomato can make your burger have a large variation of flavour, while not making it entirely bad at all, but an excess of tomato can make the burger pretty much tasteless. If you have a burger, the tomato part must be proportional to the size of the burger, that means, if you have a large burger, the tomato should be, at maximum, proportionally big, not to the point for it to matter over other components, but to give a little extra taste. If you don't like the tomato, however, you can just take it away, unlike the mayo or the cheese, it's just a single, solid slice of an ingredient, so you can take it away without much effort, making it not just important for giving that extra crunch, but to make the burger not just a solid structure, but a meal you can take things off or put things on

The onion
Onions are one of the most used ingredients on a kitchen. You can do a lot of things with them, but on a burger, they are special. Like the tomato and the lettuce, the onion is not that tasty at all then alone, but differently from the tomato and the lettuce, it's contrast is rather different from the above. When you eat a burger without something crunchy, It feels like the burger is pretty soft and sloppy. More than a bless to the  taste, and eyes, it must be enjoyable to eat. It's easy to differentiate eating for fun and pleasure than eating to supress your hunger. Both can be together but the onion only takes part in the fun and pleasure part. It's crunchy and spicy. It offers a great contrast with other salty things like beef or cheese. It's just great to have the onion in a burger, not just do add an extra, almost unoticiable ingredient to the composition of your burger, but to have an extra feeling about it, and, most of time, that's what we want in a burger, a pleasure to consume in all ways

The bacon
One of the world's biggest marvels: The bacon. Don't you love it? Like the beef, the bacon is meat, but what makes it different from the beef is that the bacon are 2 factors. First one is: The bacon is crispy, full of fat and often server in bits on the burger. So now we know that it's not just one bacon on a burger, but many bits. In example, you can have only 1 beef or 2 beefs, but with the bacon, you can further distribute it alonge the burger, even between all of the other ingredients. Second: The bacon is a meat derived from the pig. We all love everything that comes from the flesh of our little pink fellows, sausages, hot dogs and the bacon, it has a good contrast with the bovine meat from the beef and makes it not just the same meat, but another meat, giving variable experiences of flavour without changing it's type. The bacon is very versatile, you can put a little of it over the burger if you want, or a lot of it if you like. The bacon is also crunchy, and makes all of the other attributes even better, even tho it lacks color contrast with the beef in general, and it is also a perfect component for the smell of a burger.

The egg
Eggs are pretty unusual. They are not plants nor meat, but exist since millions of years ago. The nature of an egg in the burger is also unusual: It's pretty much not solid or liquid, but it's really soft. It is not a key element to the creation of a burger, but rather an element that makes the burger more diverse and unique. Unlike some other ingredients, the egg can be served as a different meal and is also pretty good when eaten apart from a burger. Like other ingredients, it's also pretty much used to make a lot of things, from cakes to candies in general, however, eggs are not much common on burgers, you will rarely see an egg on a burger, but they are between the margin of simple ingredients to ingredients that are almost trivial to burgers, like the ones stated before. Yes, the crunchy attribute makes a great burger, but consisting your burger only of crunchy things makes it obnoxious to eat. The egg may balance it, with it's rather exotic taste and attributes that make the burger a complete meal for your day.
