Burger or Pizza? =P~


In the world today, people are always in a hurry to get to where they are heading so they prefer to eat food that are convenient for them to eat while they are going to their destination. In the food industry they make food that are most convenient for their customers. The two most convenient foods that people prefer are burger and pizza. The Burger is a type of foods that consists of a patty, lettuce, tomato and a couple of buns. The Burger began in the 15th century and originated in Europe. In the 17th century the Germans began to favor the “tartare steak” and in the 18th century the Germans brought their favorite delicacies to us and then started the term “hamburger”. The second food that people prefer is pizza. Pizza began during 17th century and it spread out throughout the world. A pizza consists of a thin or thick crust, a tomato based sauce, cheese, and a choice of meat considering the similarities between a pizza and a burger, they are both convenient to eat. You can eat these types of food practically anywhere even when you are in a hurry. Another similarity of burger and pizza is that they are both considerably fattening which are both bad for the health, but still lots of people prefer to eat these kinds of foods. The differences between pizza and burger is that the burger is somewhat a complete meal since the bun has carbohydrate, the lettuce is the vegetable, tomato the fruit, and the patty gives of protein while the pizza only provides carbohydrates and doesn’t involve vegetables. Another difference is that a whole pizza consists of 8 slices which you can get easily full while a burger is only like one fourth compared to a pizza and not many people prefer only eating one burger.

Although they are almost the same in terms of convenience they both differ in their preference due to the fact that burger gives of a full meal while pizza can get you easily full with its slices. So all in all, for me I prefer burger than pizza since it gives off a full meal and it is much more convenient for the people to eat.
