Hamburger Casserole

I don't find any reason to introduce hamburgers! How many of us don't like or eat them? I mean it's hard to find a person who doesn't hog on burgers. Even a person who is under hardcore diet can just give up on the thought of a hamburger!..I bet. Though included under the tag of "junk" food, I feel, there is hardly anyone who has missed out on these! Be it McDonald's or be it Burger Kings', we all have enjoyed our share.
