New “Hamburger” Snack is Being Created
New Haven, Connecticut, USA, December 1900
A small lunch wagon that sells steak sandwiches to local factory workers in tiny New Haven, Connecticut, has served what they are calling a “hamburger,” which was hastily made for a man who dashed off the street asking for a quick meal that he could eat on the run.
According to the diner’s owner, the “snack” consisted of a hurriedly broiled beef patty thrown between two slices of bread. “i don’t like to waste the excess beef from the daily lunch rush, so I ground it up, grilled it, and served it in a sandwich..”
The chef preferred not to be identified. And so it is!
