Delicious but a PITA to make. That’s what diners are for (if they do it right).

As a kid I remember eating at a Wimpy's Restaurant in downtown Chicago. I loved their tasty ketchup relish.

He knew every good burger joint everywhere we went. He watched Diners, Drive-ins and Dives.
When we were in Albuquerque he knew where to go. I too love hamburgers, but have never eaten cheese.
When my kids were young I'd phone in for a large pizza, one half no cheese. They'd ask "Is this
panader0?"
I'll bet Boog and Duncan are Wimpys too. Happy Holidays TEB.
