Who's gonna be able to afford burgers?

Burgers are cheap! You can easily find a place that has something meat-adjacent with too much bun and certified cheesonium topping for less than $30. Don't just try it once, start a layaway plan now so you can enjoy that three times a year!

I wish this was sarcasm...

It is. Here’s a vegan cheeseburger for four dollars in a popular west coast metro.

They even have a working shake machine.

A vegan cheeseburger isn't a cheeseburger.

That's why it's called vegan cheeseburger and not cheeseburger! A toy car isn't a car, a step dad isn't a dad and an e book isn't a book, are they ?

A cheeseburger with neither beef nor cheese is not a cheeseburger.

A vegan sandwich would be right.

Do you also call a caesar salad a salad cheeseburger?

That’s right! And the vegan cheeseburger cited above is made with vegan cheese and vegan hamburger.

Go Costco! Costco is now my official restaurant whenever the family wants a bit of treat.
