Burgerless burger
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A burgerless burger, especially in Southern California, means a burger made without a meat patty. Unlike the veggie burger which is not available in all fast-food restaurants, a "burgerless burger" is more widely available.
Some restaurants that serve burgerless burgers include:
- Cassell's, grilled cheese
- Fatburger, skinny fats
- Hodad's, cheeseburger without the meat ("Un-Burger")
- In-N-Out, Veggie Burger (without cheese) / grilled cheese (with cheese)
- Tommy's
- Burger King,Veggie Whopper (not to be confused with their "BK Veggie" veggie burger)
- Nation's Giant Hamburgers, Harvester
A burgerless burger can also be a burger made from a non-beef meat substitute because of fear of bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE A.K.A. Mad Cow Disease). For example: some restaurants may call their BLT sandwich or ham & cheese sandwich a "burgerless burger". Vegetable based protein burgers offer a healthful alternative to beef burgers.
