No one thinks of burgers with Hamburg. There is no reason to change them but it’s also a non-issue either way. Many vegan/vegetarian subs getting upset over something that hardly affects anything feels like too much. It’s a dumb change but not like it’s hurting eating plant based

I can’t help you if you don’t understand marketing.

Unnecessarily rude. Marketing it as a burger doesn’t change anything if you call it a sandwich. Simmer down
