Lemon Tree Man

Ah Lunchtime, the sacred break from doing stuff for some company in some dubious city. Yes you guessed it this is a hungry man’s post. So why would I want to write about lunch? I don’t I just want to write about one of the world’s most famous sandwiches: the DOUBLE CHEESEBURGER!


This is about semantics, why does a double cheese*burger* have twice the meat but only single cheese for each meat patty. Double cheese by definition means twice as much cheese! I want double the cheese without double the meat! It’s not from a love of dieting that this is the case, simply because cheese appeals to me more than meat. No I am NOT a wanna’ be vegetarian, I love meat too.
In any case I digress, why not double cheese, single meat? From a cost perspective one extra slice of cheese is cheaper than an extra slice plus beef patty? Surely it would make commercial sense. You could have a double cheeseburger and a cheese doubleburger, thereby giving more choice and making yourself more profitable.

Enough!

If you want to see great burgers go to the travel channel in the states or the food channel in the UK and watch Man V Food. You are guaranteed to feel hungry, it’s the perfect cure to a bland dry weekday sandwich, stale crisps and flat pop*.

The point of all this was that we want more cheese in our burgers, everyone knows that melted cheese tastes better the more there is.

Back to the grindstone doing more stuff for my anonymous grey corporate entity.

*pop for you Americans refers to fizzy soft drink, most often known as Coca Cola, Lemonade, Irn Bru, Cherryade etc.... We do not distinguish between the brand product types to us its pop. So next time you go to the ‘Irish’ pub ask for pop! They won’t know what you mean, mind as they are Irish but any sensible English/Scottish person will!
