Although hamburgers originated in Hamburg, Germany (hence the name), eating a burger on a bun is actually an American tradition, with hamburgers as we know being invented in Seymour, Winsconsin and each year the city has an annual event called Burger Fest.

The world's largest hamburger made its debut in 2002 and weighed 8,266 pounds.
