[T]he burger is omnipotent and irresistible. It can never be weakened. It can never be slowed down. It can never stop its ever-increasing growth in popularity. It’s the single most powerful force in the food universe…. The hamburger is a way that people can experience everything that’s great about eating beef—the flavor, the tenderness, and everything—in a way that’s a affordable.

That’s Josh Ozersky, quoted over on A Hamburger Today, from his appearance on Nightline. The great thing about the fact that I’ve been blogging for almost ten years is that I can definitively prove that I was bloggingabout burgers before it was cool. The second great thing is that I am sitting at my desk at work, and the Shake Shack is only a stone’s throw away.
