Smashed Burger: My Guilty Pleasure Confession

I caved and made myself a smashed burger last night. Not the healthy salad I promised myself, not even a sad wrap—just pure, greasy, crispy-edged perfection. There’s something about that sizzle when the patty hits the pan, the way the cheese melts into every crevice, and the crunch of pickles that makes me forget all my so-called discipline. Was it worth it? Absolutely. I inhaled it in under five minutes and immediately felt both victorious and slightly ashamed. But honestly, who can resist that combo of juicy beef and toasted buns? If loving smashed burgers is wrong, I don’t want to be right. If you’re reading this and thinking about making one, just do it. Your taste buds will thank you, even if your conscience doesn’t. #SmashedBurger #FoodieLife #GuiltyPleasure #Food #Foodie
