    I love a good burger but wtf is everyone obsession with Five Guys. Every time I've seen one of my partnes at work eat one it looks like a ball of grease that absorbed the bun.

    It's not an obsession with me...I do like the way they taste...and I have them maybe 2 or 3 times a year.

    All the burger I have seen so far in this thread look bad. They would be good for like 1/4 or 1/2 of the burger but I'm guessing I would get sick of the meat cheese grease combo.

    Here is a real burger, comes with chips, not fries.

    No, that is not a burger. That is a chicken filet sandwich. Not a burger.

    It's not emotion. I have no emotional issue with food. I tend to stick to whole foods, but moderation is my overall philosophy. Back to the burger.... It is a treat as much as a milkshake is, i.e., especially a fast food burger, is high in calories. Most people cannot have one every day and lose or maintain their weight. They just don't have the calories for it, at least not if they want to maintain good nutrition. I wish folks on here would recognize that not everyone has a 3000 calorie TDEE to play with.

    On a 1350-1400 calorie allotment, I have no trouble fitting in a burger and I do not consider it a treat, as it's food! I will be the first on here to say i often talk about cheesecake or chocolate. After my macros are met, if I have room, then I get to have these things. It's all about priorities. So I personally, don't drink my calories and exercise more that day to make a little bigger deficit.

    You guys are missing the point. Can I fit a high calorie burger into my day everyday? Nope. And most people can't. On occasion, sure. And so can everyone. Good for you if you can fit it in every day. You are not in the majority. You guys are really arguing with the wrong person, just to argue. I'm not a food restricter or advocating restricting. Moderation means just that, not indulging in high calorie foods every single day. And it really isn't just calories. Those fast food burgers are high in everything and will likely throw off an average person's macros.

    I don't agree that the majority couldn't eat it every day (not that they should, they don't even taste that good). When I'm dieting, I eat 1200 + exercise calories. A Quarter Pounder with Cheese actually has fewer calories than the burger I make at home (including bun and toppings for both).

    I cook hamburgers a couple times a month. I don't consider it a special treat--I just eat it with the knowledge that I have to reign it in at lunch and breakfast.

    Why does this "everyday" crap keep coming up when talking about eating foods like this?

    I don't know a single person who would want to or expect to eat a cheeseburger (or cheesecake, or DQ Blizzards, or 600 calorie milkshakes, or eat only Twinkies and ice cream and Oreos.... etc...from other threads) every single day...

    I'm still trying to figure out what that is, doesn't look like beef, doesn't look like chicken, is it breakfast sausage?

    No, that is not a burger. That is a chicken filet sandwich. Not a burger.

    Its called a Bondi burger. Looks more like a burger than a sandwich.

    If you replace the chicken with beef would it be a beef sandwich? No that would be ridiculous. So is the idea that chicken can't be a burger.

    You guys and your crazy ideas.
