        If it’s a beef patty then it’s a burger. If it is chicken then it’s a sandwich. Wtf?

          That’s cos burger is short for Hamburger, from Hamburg. Which is a beef patty, not a ham one. I can see the logic using a different name for a chicken version (not from Hamburg). What cracks me up is baconburger.

            Why are you apologising for? You’re all good, apology unnecessary. To me it’s odd to hear but then again, I guess each country has its own thing

      I don’t love it, but it doesn’t elicit the same visceral reaction from me as watching a cooking video of someone making lasagne and them saying “and then you’re just gonna layer your bolognaise sauce with your noodles”

      Deep dish pizza I can accept could possibly be classified as a pie.

        I’m probably wrong here, but doesn’t ‘pizza’ actually mean ‘pie’ - so pizza pie would be a ‘pie pie’. I am looking forward to the magpizza swooping season.
