Sandwich Saturday: Big Cheese Burger

It's Sandwich Saturday. This week, from Heinz, the big cheeseburger made with lea & Perrins Worchestershire sauce and Heinz mustard on a traditional hamburger bun.

Pre-packaged hamburger buns include the standard white, sesame, whole wheat and multi-grain, as well as egg-braided, onion, sourdough and potato bread.

The list expands considerably when you add specialty buns such as brioche, kaiser, pretzel and challah rolls.

Most hamburger buns are round and pre-sliced, with the top half standing about 1-inch high. Square buns are sometimes used in miniature burgers, referred to as "sliders" on restaurant menus.

Specialty bakeries and cafes offer buns with toppings baked into the bread or basted on top, including olive oil, Parmesan cheese, rolled oats, rye and even jalapenos. Source
