Hamburgers don’t rank very high as a leading sandwich choice in Chicago, according to a recently released new survey. Chicago’s low Hamburger consumption ranking is probably because the Midwest city is best known for Pizza and Beef sandwiches.
But who eats Beef Sandwiches during the Memorial Day weekend? No one. Hamburger lovers need to work harder in the Midwest to increase their rankings, especially since this weekend marks National Hamburger Day.
In fact, National Hamburger Day is Sunday May 28, I’m and NationalToday.com & Postmates released their annual “Hamburger Index”—which recently ranked Chicago the #24 most burger-loving U.S. city and is rewarding 10,000 Chicago residents with free burgers all day to celebrate.
They also released data on what toppings are most popular and how fast food burger chains rank in popularity.
To get the beef on America’s burger-eating habits, Postmates America’s most popular universal delivery app—partnered with the data scientists at NationalToday.com to rank cities across the U.S. based on overall preference for hamburgers over other foods.
