May 28 has become a very important date for fast food lovers, as International Hamburger Day is celebrated. It is a way of paying tribute to what is possibly the most famous food in the world.
Why is Burger Day celebrated?
It is an initiative to celebrate this highly popular food and the favorite of many in the world. May 28 was chosen because, it is said, on a day like this, but in the year 1900, a German immigrant living in the United States, named Louis Lassen, prepared for the first time this dish as it is known today: a combination of bread, meat, tomato, cheese and lettuce.
The hamburger arrived in Mexico in the 1930s, when international restaurants began to include it on their menu. Much later, in 1985, the famous fast food chain, McDonald’s arrived in Mexican territory and the consumption of these became massively popular.
