Power to the people. That's the vibe I'm passing along to a new online effort that's trying to convince Whataburger to bring their beloved franchise to St. Louis.
Where is the best cheeseburger in Illinois? That is debatable. However, there are online experts that the best you're gonna get in the Land of Lincoln has an egg on it. I'll attempt to explain why.
If you really just gotta have the best burger possible and you don't want to travel far to get it, "experts" say that the best you're gonna find in Missouri is inside a St. Louis burger bar.
I can't prove it, but I'm pretty sure that I have a good burger radar. I say this because almost by accident I found a new St. Louis burger place and it's out of this world and thanks to their name, I can say that literally.
No offense to the national food chains, but I'll take a down home diner any day over regular fast food. If you agree with that statement, you need to know about a tiny Missouri diner that is home to massive burgers and pie. Grab your fork.
For many people, there are few things in life more satisfying than a good burger. If you are of the opinion that they "don't make them like they used to", you can time travel to a burger place in St. Louis that truly hasn't changed since they started way back in 1957.
We all have our routines. For one Midwestern man, his daily must-do list includes eating a Big Mac. He's done that every day for over 50 years which equals over 30,000 burgers.
Burgers are kind of a subjective topic. It's like the old saying "one man's trash is another man's treasure". However, there seems to be at least some agreement on where the world's best burger is and, if correct, resides in a small Illinois town in a place called The Moonshine Store.
