I hate meal prepping but it's the reason I've lost 20 lbs since January. I don't prep burgers like this godless heathen, though

Fuck you all, I would eat the shit of that "burger!"
Storytime!
Years ago, I worked a contract w/ a long-term post-op elders' facility, and learned first-hand that those with dysphagia (difficulty/inability to swallow) can often eat the same food as their neighbors โ provided it's Vitamixed first. ๐ค
The thing is? Aside from the mouth-feel, it tastes exactly the same as a perfect bite, every time. ๐ถ
For instance, a cheeseburger w/ the works becomes an orchestral synthesis of its ingredients, without the chewing. So, no crunchy lettuce or piquant tomato skin, etc., but then again... Those are atypical to the US "burger" at this point anyhow, eh? ๐
Homogeneity isn't always good, sometimes you gotta clear the palate. Compromise would be to blend individual ingredients and put them next to each other
Yep, we did that, too. Despite the slew of exploitive, profit-focused practices elsewise, the nutrition dept made absolutely sure we were a resident-first, shareholders-last kinda team.
* palate
Big doubt.
But a huge part of good food is also texture.
You'll note that the example was cheeseburger, and at a post-op facility in the US health care system. ๐ I'm not suggesting that you frappe your kobe.
If anything, I was recalling a memory that sparked when reading, and felt like sharing the simple joy of a new discovery. You do you, though. Carry on.
C'mon, it fits perfectly and I'm sure it tastes fine. There's something to be said for spatial efficiency.
You're right, and I'm not one to talk, really. The amount of squashed, shitty lunches you eat doing bush work is astronomical.
What is considered a bush work?

How long do you think that piece of salad is going to stay tasty, though?
Auf Englisch, nennen wir das lettuce ๐
But yeah, better to pack that and the tomato separately. And really, wrap the rest of the hamburger in parchment paper then a layer of foil. That's basically how fast food places do it but better. It's also ideal to pack the bun separately to really avoid sogginess.
Exactly, which of why it's pointless to meal prep burgers. It's almost as much work as making one on demand and just eating it then.
I found a cheeseburger in a can in a Krogers in Tn years ago and bought it. It was the single most putrid item I have ever attempted to eat, soggy, misshaped bun, gray meat, lifeless lettuce and tomato slice. Didn't have a microwave, so heated it up in a toaster over (which the instructions on the can recommended). Meat had a odd metallic taste to it, so only managed one bite.
When the apocalypse hits, canned cheeseburgers are going to be the diamonds of the wastelands. But nobody ever finds out they're actually horrible, they're purely valuated on the idea of eating a cheeseburger.
Looks better than those canned cheeseburgers I guess
Excuse me, better than what?
That is NOT from Glorious Nation of Denmark! It is German or possibly Austrian.
It's Swiss. That whole awful concept has its own website.
You could be right, I don't know. Frankly, I don't want to know.
Early 2000's? I'm guessing a novelty item
Kinds depends on the bun and fillings but I think a burger is definitely a food you can just squash together.
Arguably in general it can make a sandwich better. Yes burgers are not sandwiches but I just remember some QI anecdote of some person always wrapping their sandwich in cling film then sat on it before eating it.
The big issue is the salad IMO. I don't want to eat salad that has been stored like that for even half a day.
Yes burgers are not sandwiches

It's a difference in terms. You could order a chicken sandwich in the US and get something that no European would call a sandwich, but a burger.
In the US, a "burger" typically refers to a ground meat patty (beef, chicken, etc.) served on a bun, while a "sandwich" is more broadly defined as any filling between two slices of bread. In the UK, a burger is generally considered a specific type of sandwich, specifically one with a patty in a bun. While Americans may use the terms somewhat interchangeably, Brits typically distinguish between a burger and a sandwich, with a burger being a subset of the sandwich category
As long as I have access to an air fryer to reheat it, I can work with that. Definitely will be a sad, soggy burger if you only have a microwave.
The key is microwaving the patty but not the bun. But at that point you might as well pack the bun separately. And condiments/toppings too so the bun doesnt get soggy.
It would be even better to keep all ingredients separated until it's lunch time.
I haven't seen anyone who deserved to get murdered in prison since Ep-CENSORED FOR LEGAL REASONS
What the problem is?
Right? I've eaten many vending machine burgers. This looks delicious by comparison.
For lunch? Great. Tomorrow? Okay. The next day? That soggy ass bread is gonna be worthless. Next day? Mold.
This is why they fill the cans with light syrup to preserve the burger
Salad doesn't stay fresh that way for long, and not-fresh salad is kinda gross.
How do you get that out nicely? Turn it upside down and smack its bottom?
You can smack my bottom
Then I get your meat in my mouth?
I mean a burger in a can is a thing
Preparing for the future? What's the opposite of nominative determinism?
how do you know when someone abuses animals don't worry they tell you ha ha ha ha
You're not helping the cause that you think you are helping.
How do you even know that's not a vegan patty with vegan cheese substitute?
God forbid someone eats a canned burger
who gives a fuck about vulnerable individuals, right
who gives a fuck about atrocity
2 years ago I bought 500lbs of pemmican and i just munch on that when I get hungry.
Ah, the "Rimworld diet".
