What Do Americans Want on Their Cheeseburgers? Sargento Shares Its Findings

To kick off the summer grilling season, the Plymouth, Wisconsin-based cheese processor decided to survey Americans about their cheeseburger preferences across five different regions of the country. Some of the results might not be too shocking (hey, most people want cheese on their burgers!), but others shed an interesting light on what consumers are looking for in their burger-grilling adventures.
