The "hamburger" (actually made of ground beef) was invented in the 1880s in America by a man who was trying to find a way to sell meatballs people could eat while they were walking around, so he squashed them and put them between a bun.

Funny, I read something on Google that said a cook by the name of Otto Kuasw created hamburgers and served them in Hamburg, Germany. Yet, the third person to answer this question says it was invented in Ottoman. Lol. Was it Otto Kuasw or Ottoman?

Sorry, but all the answers are incorrect. Hamburgers first originated in Ottoman Turkey when the soldiers set up camps to eat. The meat they hunted was very tought so they puonded it until it became soft and pasty. Later, the food was introduced to Europe and very particularly in the town of Hamburg, Germany. Unfortunetely, being westernized, we tend to believe everything originated in Europe. The Ottoman's gave us hamburgers as well as the popular kabobs.

The first hamburger - that is a fried or grilled patty of meat served with bread - was made in ancient Rome. The meat used was finely chopped mutton or lamb and spices and sometimes pine nuts were added. It was then served folded in a sort of flatbread.

After Googling it, most of the sites indicate that it originated in America.
In my mind I was mixing it up with the Earl of Sandwich, who came up with the idea to put meat between bread and make a sandwich.
