The Juicy Facts of why we Celebrate National Cheeseburger Day 2016

-

How many burgers do you think Americans eat in a year? Some say we average three per week or more than 150 a year. Others say that, all together, we’re eating 50 billion burgers each year.
What about cheeseburgers? When it comes to them, our favorite cheese to put on our burger is cheddar. The next favorites? American cheese, bleu cheese and Swiss cheese.
I’ll bet millions of Americans will be consuming plenty of cheeseburgers on Sunday, September 18. Why? Because it’s a national food day–specifically National Cheeseburger Day.


Americans eat 50 billion burgers (cheese and otherwise) a year! Celebrate National Cheeseburger Day (September 18) with these other juicy facts.

—Food Network dubs the cheeseburger at Au Cheval in Chicago (pictured above) the No. 1 burger in the country. It features three beef patties with a “perfect burger-to-cheese ratio.”

—Who invented the cheeseburger? Nobody knows for sure, but Louis Ballast of Denver’s Humpty Dumpty drive-in got the trademark in 1935.
—While American and cheddar cheeses are traditional toppers, mozzarella, blue and pepper jack are rising in popularity.

—The World’s Largest Commercially Available Burger (according to the folks at The Guinness Book) can be found at Mallie’s Sports Bar & Grill in Michigan. The “Ridiculous Burger” includes 10 pounds of cheese atop 190 pounds of meat.

—The Jimmy Buffett song “Cheeseburger in Paradise” was inspired by Buffett’s own burger craving while boating through the Caribbean.

“A-list”  actors are exceptionally successful, their notoriety extends beyond the silver screen, and their name guarantees a box office hit. Some “A-list” actors include: Will Smith, Brad Pitt, Leonardo DiCaprio, Angelina Jolie, Meryl Streep, and Johnny Depp. The “A-list” actors are usually made up of male actors as with more high earning positions. “B-list”  actors are usually television actors or less successful movie stars. Some “B-list” actors include: Nicholas Cage, Katherine Heigl, David Morse, Samantha Morton, and Pierce Brosnan. “B-list” actors usually never headline a film by themselves; this means the supporting actors are usually fairly notable too. “C-list”  actor is a character actor that’s known by face and not by name. They are usually still good actors, but they receive less notoriety than an A or B-list actor. “D-list”  actors are the lowest on the celebrity hierarchy; they appear on celebrity game shows and reality television.
