Today, we celebrate one of America's favorite foods!
Happy National Cheeseburger Day!
September 18 is National Cheeseburger Day. According to the National Day calendar, this cheesy, greasy goodness dates back to the 1920s.
Many eateries have claimed to have invented the cheeseburger, including a California sandwich shop that said they came up with it in 1926. However, the Humpty Dumpty Drive-in in Denver was the first to trademark the actual name "cheeseburger" in 1935.
Luckily, you don't have to travel to Denver to honor the fast food staple.
