Oh I know, Spain- when we got here 6 years ago, the burger was commonly ground pork & beef, and alot of places still make it that way (and it is still called ‘hamburguesa’ in the grocery) , but Angus beef now has menu name recognition so it has taken off.
The Angus craze definitely hit a decade or more ago, hungry jacks (burger king) probably helped kill that fever with their marketing saturation on Angus Beef burgers. It probably still has some meaning if you go to a nice restaurant.
Its nice to have the choice of both types where i am, something simpler, and a little less salty (old aussie style), or something with a little more complexity, plus extra salt (yankee style, whatever it is its def not southern US states, so can’tsay yeehaw style ;) ).
