This is nonsense. Burgers are sold in damn near every country.

Except Americans will only call it a 'burger' if it's a beef patty and garnish on a burger bun. What we call a chicken burger, they call a chicken sandwich - which is ludicrous because a sandwich is something between two slices of bread, not two halves of a bun. Heck, the even call Subway's fare 'sandwiches'.

    Round bun = Burger.

    Regardless of the patty.

    What's crazy is americans will eat a vege burger, a mushroom burger, pork, lamb, turkey patties etc.. all burgers. but as soon as you put fried chicken in it is suddenly becomes a sandwitch?

    It must be ground, formed into a patty, grilled, and served on a bun. All those examples follow that formula, the protein itself is of secondary importance (although if no protein is specified then beef is assumed).

    A piece of fried chicken is not ground and formed into a patty, and thus cannot qualify.
