There is/was a hamburger chain in the old country called Wimpy's. Cross-ponders, does it still exist?
Yes. But they are not as ubiquitous as they were. In fact I had to look them up to be sure they *did still exist.

In hunting that up I came across this ‘fact’.
“Producing a single hamburger patty uses enough fossil fuel to drive a small car 20 miles and enough water for 12 showers!”
Could just be axe-grinding statistical presentation on someone’s part I guess. You know – lies, damned lies and statistics.
Why is something supposedly made of beef called a hamburger, by the way?
