Eva and Maite kick off a two-part series on burgers by tracing their roots long before the bun. They begin with the global history of minced meat, follow its path to the United States, where the hamburger starts to take shape, find its perfect match in the bun, and win the heart of America. From early 20th century fears around contaminated beef to the rise of drive-ins and drive-thrus, they explore how car culture transformed the burger into a symbol of freedom, youth, and modern American life, ushering in the age of fast food.

In this episode, Eva and Maite begin with a simple question: what came first, the dish or the bowl? From humble clay vessels to fine porcelain and paper plates, they trace how what we eat from is a reflection of how we live, how we dine, and how we connect with one another.
