Etymology
The term 'hamburger' originated in Hamburg, Germany, where beef from Hamburg cows was minced and shaped into patties to make a dish called 'Hamburg steak.' In the 19th century, German immigrants brought this dish to the United States, where it evolved into the modern hamburger as we know it today. The hamburger gained popularity during the 20th century and became a staple in fast food culture.
