America is known as the ‘melting pot.’ The influence of other cultures in America can be seen in many ways, but especially in the food! America’s food culture features tastes from all over the world, but one flavor that tends to shine through as All American is the burger. This classic meat patty on bread has been around for ages, and still remains a favorite to this day! Plain, with lettuce, onion and tomato, smothered in barbeque sauce or guacamole, or fancied up with blue cheese, a burger and a side of fries is just good American comfort food. Luckily for Branson residents and visitors, there are lots of Branson burgers to choose from!
