Know the history of the first hamburger

Ride along with Jane and Michael Stern as they visit Louis' Lunch in New Haven, Connecticut. Louis' Lunch, in operation since the late 1800s, claims to have invented the hamburger in 1900, when a hurried customer asked for a quick meal he could eat on the go. With its unique gas grills and its strictly enforced no-ketchup policy, it's one of the quirky gems the Sterns are renown for ferreting out. The hamburgers are served on toast instead of buns because when it was invented, there were no buns.
