    “By hamburgers in bulk and flatten”

      Had to look this up, because I’d seen it before but didn’t want to accuse Americans of being crazy without proof:

      https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/hamburger

      1 a: ground beef
      1 b: a patty of ground beef

      The meme says singular “hamburger”, so it makes sense that they meant it in the ground beef sense. Every other dictionary starts with “a patty of ground beef” by the way, so it seems to be an American peculiarity.

        If like to see the reaction of every Italian when they realize bolognese and lasagne are made out of hamburger according to Americans

        Well, that explains the name “hamburger helper”. I’ve been wondering what they had in common with hamburgers besides the ground beef.
