Since Jenny doesn't even know what fast food is, it's not surprising
that Burger King's non-meat Impossible Burger confuses and frightens
her.

It's not surprising that definition of the word "burger" also escapes
her. It's obviously one of the reasons she could never make it in the
fast food industry.

So, alt.food.fast-food proudly provides the following helpful
definitions:

burger
short for hamburger.
a particular variation of a hamburger with additional or substitute
ingredients.

hamburger
a round patty of ground beef, fried or grilled and typically served on
a bun or roll and garnished with various condiments.

chicken burger
A hot sandwich made of a patty of chicken in a bun, often with other
ingredients.

fish burger
a type of sandwich made of fish, in the style of a hamburger, offered
as an alternative to beef hamburgers

veggie burger
A type of sandwich using a patty resembling a hamburger but made with
vegetable protein, soybeans, etc., instead of meat.

There are also Elk Burgers, Portobello Mushroom Burgers, Turkey
Burgers, Pork Burgers, Bison Burgers, Lamb Burgers, and anything you
could probably think of using the standard "burger" motif.

While Jenny may certainly refuse to taste or try any non-beef burger,
as is her right, she is, as usual, incorrect to flatly claim the only
burger is a "beef burger."
