Juicy, melty, and timelessâthe burger that became an icon.
A Bite of History
Every September 18, America celebrates the cheeseburger, a culinary legend that turned a simple beef patty into a worldwide obsession. While the exact origins are debatedâstories trace back to the 1920s in California and Kentuckyâthe cheeseburger quickly became a staple of diners, barbecues, and fast-food empires.
In 2025, the cheeseburger is more than just foodâitâs culture. From drive-ins and backyard grills to gourmet wagyu stacks topped with truffle aioli, the cheeseburger has been remixed and reimagined without losing its essence: the perfect marriage of beef, cheese, and bun. Itâs comfort food, nostalgia, and indulgence all in one bite.
