HOW THE HAMBURGER GOT ITS BUN,!! Once upon a time there was a handsome prince who lived in a white castle surrounded by servants and villagers who loved him for his kindness and fairness. His gleaming white castle, which happened to be located on a steep hill called Hamburger Hill, was admired from miles around as one of the most beautiful places in all the land. Yet, the prince was not happy. He was very lonely and wished to find a bride to marry and share his wealth. He would like nothing better than to have a companion who shared his love of good conversation and hamburger meat pies. One day the prince of Hamburger Hill was sharing his feelings of loneliness with his best friend and cousin, Tommy Burger. Tommy suggested that he hold a royal hamburger cooking contest. The prince thought this was a grilling good idea and made the preparations. Young ladies came from miles around to cook their special hamburger recipes for the prince. The contestants made lots of delicious hamburger dishes. There was hamburger steak, hamburger pie, hamburger stroganoff, hamburger stew, and hamburger casseroles of all kinds. The prince tasted them all with the help of his hamburger helpers. However, he soon chose two dishes to award first and second place to. In second place was a recipe that featured hamburger smothered in a rich, brown gravy, made by a woman who called herself hamburger Patty. Finally, the prince awarded the white castle hamburger contest blue ribbon to a recipe that was truly something new and unusual - hamburger in a bun. Hamburger in a bun was created by a lovely young woman named Wendy. It featured two all beef patties, a special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles, and onions on a sesame seed bun. Placing a hamburger inside two buns had never been done before and everyone raved over Wendys hamburgers. Wendy not only won the contest, but she also won the heart of the handsome prince of Hamburger Hill. Wendy and the prince married and lived happily ever after. Oh, by the way, Wendy sold her winning recipe for hamburger in a bun to a local businessman named Ronald T. McDonald. Mr. McDonald went on to sell millions of Wendys white castle hamburgers under his own brand name. And thats how the hamburger got its bun.
