Red DNA Posted August 29, 2018 Report Share Posted August 29, 2018 I think you should do an audit to see which emojis are least used and then replace them with new ones? Im sure there’s potential for a couple more, like toys, prams and handbags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s a search engine called Google - the answer to the meaning of life plus other questions such as yours can be found in there.

They had decided to go for a meal and thought they would try the new American food craze, this was way long before MaccyD’s had even been thought of over here. From the picture less menu my Mum chose a Hamburger which came with bun ( bread roll to her) and all the trimmings, lettuce, tomato etc. My Dad liking steaks etc ordered a Beefburger. It arrived all alone on the plate, a wafer thin piece of minced meat shaped into a round, with just chips for company! Whether this is the difference widely used now I’m not sure, but it was in that restaurant! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Hamburger was originally a recipe in Hamburg in Germany, It is widely believed that minced beef compressed into a patty was a common dish in northern Germany around the time of mass immigration into the US ( I guess the latter half of the 19th Century) and that immigrants brought the concept of the Hamburger Steak with them when they arrived Stateside.

Everyday is a School Day, I had no idea Germany was involved in what the Americans must see as pretty much their National dish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the old Wimpy bars - next to the Hippodrome, Union st. and Park Street really did have ham (pork) in their Hamburgers, didn't they? It certainly wasn't beef anyway!
