National Double Cheeseburger Day

National Double Cheeseburger Day is an annual holiday celebrated on September 15^th, created in honor of the juicy and tasty double cheeseburger. This dish is very popular in America and elsewhere.

History

It is believed the creation of the cheeseburger is thanks to Lionel Sternberger. His family had their own small diner. Once at work, he decided to refine the classic burger recipe (it is very simple: a bun, a meat patty and a little spice), by adding melted cheese inside the bun.

This small refinement allowed the creation of a new dish, which was called a cheeseburger. The diner quickly became a success, and the recipe was sold around the world. A little later, someone thought that a burger could be made bigger by adding another slice of cheese and a patty. The result is the double cheeseburger.
