Tomatoes on a Cheeseburger are Disgusting

[GameChanger]

I don't know why this is even a thing. Why would you ruin a perfectly tasty cheese burger with a piece of fucking raw tomato. Sauteed onions, grilled bell peppers, avocados and shredded lettuce all make sense. And the worst part is that tomatoes are so common on cheeseburgers. There is nothing worse than taking a bite of a mouthwatering cheeseburger to find a piece of fucking tomato in your mouth because you forgot to say no tomatoes.

 

[Kyuuji]

Correct.

Meat and cheese is all you need on a good burger. Maybe some thousand island if you're feeling spicy.

 

[Ze_Shoopuf]

agreed. tomatoes make the burger too "wet".

This. One of the worst foods in general

 

[Frostinferno]

You weirdos who have problems with various veggies (tomatoes, onions, lettuce, etc.) on burgers make no sense.

 

[Mirage]

But Tomatoes are good though.

 

[Tom Penny]

Better than lettuce.

 

[Vulcano's Assistant]

Tomatoes and cheese are a great combo.

 

[Knight613]

I just don't like tomato in general.

 

[Pankratous]

Tomatoes on a burger is definitely fucking bizarre and I don't know why some places do it. Even people who like tomatoes that I know tend to take them off because that's a fucking weird addition.

PREACH

 

[FTF]

Do you like ketchup on your burgers?

 

[thecouncil]

an avocado on a cheeseburger makes sense to you? I've literally never even heard of or seen that as an option.

 

[rusty chrome]

Tomatoes overpower everything for me. I take them out of everything or simply ask for no tomatoes. Tomatoes do not taste like ketchup at all, so I wouldn't use the, "ketchup is tomatoes" logic either.

 

[nsilvias]

i too wonder why we put fruit on hamburgers

Spoiler

i like them when they are thin slices

 

[Kyuuji]

Raw tomatoes are vile things. Cooked into a sauce though, or vine tomatoes roasted to where they're effectively that when burst and mixed with everything else - delicious.

 

[Professor Fate]

You're disgusting.

 

[Deleted member 8468]

Good tomatoes on burgers are awesome.

Unfortunately 99% of tomatoes out there are artificially ripened tasteless garbage.

 

[Gush]

Lettuce is the real crime

Diced tomato on a burger is fantastic

 

[grang]

The acidity cuts the fattiness of the cheese and meat, lettuce adds texture.

Now you want to talk about unbalancing a burger, raw onion. Caramelized or grilled onions are mellowed out and work, but raw onion overpowers everything else.

Finally, somebody speaking some sense.

Tomatoes, Onions Pickles and Lettuce on a cheeseburger is perfection.

tomatoes improve most things, including cheeseburgers

tomatoes are great on any sandwich...a fully ripe tomato is delicious...lettuce on the other hand should only be put in salads

I can do all of those but I will not stand pineapple or beetroot on my burger.

The perfect burger is put together in this order:

bun
ketchup/mayo
red onion
tomato
cheese
burger
ketchup/mayo
bun

The rest of you are just wrong. Wrong. Wrong. Wrong.

Bacon is acceptable but it must be crispy.

edit: I forgot a pickle!!!!

All of this is factual.

Tomatoes are essential for a burger.

 

[Tagyhag]

Nah you're crazy, give me a fat slab of a ripe tomato any day.

The real monster is the weakass piece of iceberg lettuce that you see in some burgers.

Where do you live that you are so deprived?

Farmers Boy Farmer's Burger with Cheese, Bacon, Avocado is delish (once you remove the tomatoes)

 

[Deleted member 4367]

Yeah, if you're a 6 year old.

 

[nded]

I love tomatoes, but they're a bit too watery to put on a burger as is. Whenever I prepare tomato slices for a burger I salt them a bit and let some of the excess moisture leach out.

 

[Carbon]

I'm not even a big fan of raw tomatoes, but I will gladly have them on a burger.
Especially a real, quality vine-ripened tomato, not some watered down barely ripe slice of pale nothing.

 

[AcridMeat]

What if you use two slices of tomato as the bun tho

 

[WedgeX]

Correct, OP.

I highly recommend a burger with avocado, a spicy chipotle sauce, and crispy onions. It's real good.

 

[pillowtalk]

Makes the burger cold and wet.

BLT is a goat sandwich, you crazy. Also there are so many types of greens to put on a sandwich. Gimmie some spring mix with spinach and arugala on pretty much any sandwich.

There's no such thing as a bad vegetable or fruit. Just bad taste.

It feels good to meet another person who dislikes tomatoes in their burgers.

 

[Deleted member 5745]

What, you egg?

 

[Surfinn]

I order extra

Also, pineapple is great on pizza

 

[Stinkles]

I love a good fresh tomato on a burger.

you know what else is awesome? Pico de gallo and Super thick crispy tortilla chips.

 

[Piggus]

Agreed OP, they suck. Get those goddamn pickles off there too while you're at it.
