Origin of Hamburger Day
There are several versions of National Cheeseburger Day, one of which dates back to the 1926s, when Lionel Sternberger was working at his father’s Pasadena, California, sandwich store, The Rite Spot, and added a slice of American cheese on top of a hamburger.
Another version attributes the invention to a Los Angeles restaurant called O’Dell’s, which included the cheeseburger on its menu in 1928.
While a restaurant named Kaelin’s in Louisville, Kentucky, is credited with the invention in 1934.
However, it was Louis Ballast of Humpty Dumpty Drive-In in Denver who trademarked the name “cheeseburger” in 1935, according to Gourmet Life.
