8 Cheesy Deals For National Cheeseburger Day

Say cheese! It’s National Cheeseburger Day on Wednesday, September 18. While there are many stories regarding the birth of the cheeseburger, many believe it all started right here in Denver. Back in 1935, a trademark for the name “cheeseburger” was awarded to Louis Ballast of the Humpty Dumpty Drive-In in Denver. Who knows the truth? All we know is that everyone loves a juicy cheeseburger!

Biting into the combo of a good bun, lettuce, tomato, pickle, cheese and juicy burger is so satisfying. Then, there are the endless of condiments to make it your very own, one-of-a-kind cheeseburger. Oh, wait! There are also the numerous types of cheese, too! The combinations just never end…
