How did National Cheeseburger Day start?
Before the cheeseburger came the hamburger, which originated in the early 20th century. A teenager named Lionel Sternberger is said to have been the first to put a slice of cheese on top of a hamburger while working at his father’s sandwich shop. Both he and his father loved this new style of burger and it became a staple in 1924.
The cheeseburger is now an American classic loved by many. Although there are many types and adaptations, the classic cheeseburger is made up of a ground beef patty and topped with American cheese.
