Bluegrass Burgers: Virtuous, Local and Delicious
Voice-Tribune review by Robin Garr
Mmm, who doesn't love a hamburger? Hot, juicy, dripping with … um … greasy fat? Let's get real: burgers appeal to something primal in most of us, but that seductive call can lead us down a path that goes directly to excess calories, unhealthy fat and … well, let's not even talk about the hormones, the antibiotics, the e. coli or the stench of inhumane stewardship that surrounds industrial feedlot beef.
Why, the not-so-innocent burger's unsavory reputation has reached the point that even multinational giant McDonald's was recently caught warning its own employees against overdoing the chain's trademark product.
The McDonald's McResource site, which made news recently for offering its low-wage employees helpful tips on how to live on its $7.25 hourly wage for starting burger-flippers, apparently broke the last straw when it warned employees against its own fast food, declaring a cheeseburger and French fries an "unhealthy choice." The website went dark two days later, on Dec. 26, reported Business Week.
So where am I going with this? Don't worry. We're not about to suggest that they take your cheeseburger from your cold, dead hands after that final cardiovascular incident.
But would it kill you to get your burgers from someplace that makes them healthy, or at least virtuous? Behold, Bluegrass Burgers! This small, usually crowded eatery does burgers right, featuring quality beef and a wealth of nutritious alternatives.
