  • Do burgers technically qualify as meatballs?

    I am thinking about this problem a lot recently.

    Meatballs are IMO one of the greatest universal achievements of mankind. They seem to exist in some variation, but in nearly every kind of cuisine.

    However, I'm not quite sure yet whether burgers should be included into the whole meatball sort of food, or if they form a distinctive own type.

    Hamburgers were invented by Jesus when he and Abraham Lincoln were fighting velociraptors in the Vietnam War.

    Rules are like Egg's. They're fun when thrown out the window!
    Difference is irrelevant when dosage is higher than recommended!

      There's nothing wrong with the dream, my friend, the problem lies with the dreamer.

        No, unless caseless sausages are elongated meatballs.
        No, I did not steal that from somebody on Something Awful.

                    Fishballs are great in soups.
