Hamburger-time

How many ways can you make a hamburger?
Do you think that one might be the best?
Just what do you need to make this a mouth-watering delight?
And with many choices of toppings you will make history with what one suggests.

Tradition says that there must be the famous big three.
Tomatoes, lettuce and onions give your tongue a thrill.
Add ketchup, mustard or mayo lightly touching the bread.
And no one will leave the table or the grill.

Some people claim that a burger without cheese is incomplete.
Brave men love to test their tongues to jalapeño peppers.
Experiment with the best guacamole for the 'um' response.
Grilled patties anointed with mesquite barbecue sauce makes the dinner a real high class stepper.

Many fast food places declare with songs and an up-close samples.
Their hamburger could weigh a pound or even more.
But these days with food prices so high
I wouldn't want to start a 'hamburger war.'
