[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Julia Child like mayo as a base for her burgers. She had some good tips for how to make a good hamburger. I personally like very good high fat ground beef on the grill, and then build it with a good melted cheese - maybe aged chedder, swiss, provolene, gouda - mayo at the bottom, then burger, add lettuce, a slice of summer tomato, sliced pickles, and mustard on the top bun. When its quality ingredients, that is a solid burger. So count me among among the lower class for my preferences. [/quote]

Sweetheart, Julia Child has been dead over over 21 years! Her TV cooking in the 1960s, 70s and 80s is not in any way relevant to modern grocery stores, modern tastes, and modern cuisine.[/quote]

But good food is good food. Go back to your little tiktok trendy things. We are discussing mayonnaise on hamburgers. As grownups do. [/quote]

Burgers were peasant blue collar food when Julia was on TV. The burger fad and professional and home chefs perfecting them didn’t happen until the 90s and 00s. Julia’s views are not relevant at all to this dialogue.[/quote]

Julia and Jacques Pepin made burgers together and she put mayo, salt and pepper on hers along with butter on her bun. I’ll take her advice any day over an internet troll.

I'm fairly convinced this may have been the first time either of them had ever had a hamburger[b]. Julia especially seemed to be laughing to herself at the thought of eating the American peasant food. [/b]And Jacques bite reaction didn't seem to be one of genuine enjoyment. It looked like he wanted to spit it out after the scene cut.[/quote]

Bizarre, given that she was an American born in the early 20th century. Kind of hard to avoid having had a hamburger, peasant or not.  [/quote]
