The question is which is worse, pizza or burger?
The answer is kale. It is always kale.28 -
Worse? What is the criteria? Taste? Satiety? Calories per gram? What are you trying to accomplish, mass gain or fat loss? There is no way to even start to get into which is "worse", depends on too many subjective things.
Personally, I like them both.3 -

Depending on a person's goals, both or nether. There is nothing intrinsically bad about either one though.1

Pizza on Friday, burgers on Saturday. That was easy.5

Burgers are pretty healthy , especially homemade . Endless healthy topping choices and a good quality meat full of protein . Dozens of healthy bun choices . And pizza is all good every now and then .1

I've eaten pizza every day for the last 3 weeks I've worked from home and it's been glorious.4

It varies too much depending on ingredients and goals so it is impossible to say.
I eat both regularly so I don't think either are bad for me. Some pizza or burgers are higher calorie than others but I choose things that fit my goals.
Neither choice has to be greasy or high sodium, high sugar, etc. They are both easy foods to make at home adjusting ingredients to suit your goals if you don't like restaurant offerings.
Why pick on pizza or burgers? Why not debate which is worse between a sub sandwich vs quiche? It makes as much sense.

Surprisingly, I haven't really wanted pizza recently. It tastes fine, but I'd rather eat a burger.0

The only fair way to answer this is through testing..
Send us all your burgers\Pizza's and we shall try them all. It's the only fair way to make an informed decision... We shall get back to you post Carb Bloat\Carb Coma, Or, post Epic Food Baby....3 -

Like everyone else is saying, no way to compare, both differ so much.
I mostly have burgers at home. I don't like a lot of stuff on them (just onion, mustard, pickles), but eat them with lots of vegetables as sides, and they aren't high cal at all.
I occasionally make pizza at home (my family wanted fancy pizzas for Christmas Eve dinner last year, for example), but mostly get them at local Italian places, so they tend to be higher cal than my burger, but it depends on how much I eat. I like ones with lots of veg, no meat, or sometimes some sort of Italian ham. Usually with a salad on the side, not always. Usually I have a bit higher protein at my other meals in the day to make room for the sort of pizza I like (lower protein, higher fat than my average meal).
Neither strikes me as "unhealthy" or "heathier than the other." It just depends, and also depends on what you are going for. You can definitely find examples of both that are challenging to fit into an average day, but to my mind that doesn't make it unhealthy.0 -
The question should be "Which is better?"
And I would debate with myself all day over that one.5 -

This. Why do we always focus on the negative?
For your consideration... There's an old quote: "pizza is like sex, even when it's bad, it's still pretty good."
I don't think I've ever heard anything similar about a burger.8 -

Ah man. You need a good mom & pop burger in your life. Not no McDonald's trash.1 -

No *kitten*. Those are my two favorite foods. I eat both a couple times per week. I honestly could never choose as I don't want to hurt either of their feelings.5 -

I've had plenty of good burgers. I'm just saying that cold pizza is still pretty tasty. Cold burgers, not so much.4 -
I vote for burger... because...
I eat burger as much as i can... but
I eat pizza as much as it exists3 -
IMO, neither are "worse". The concept of thinking food as bad is why so many people fail on diets. The relevance is whether or not one or the other fits into your diet or not.
