Before anybody asks/comments, no, I don't boil hamburgers. Some things are not to be trifled with.
I wouldn't trifle with you or your burgers.
But your post did remind me, when I was a bachelor, many years ago, I actually used to 'cook' for myself.
I do recall a product called 'boil in a bag' and the bags were transparent and had a food product contained within. You would fill a pot with water, bring it to a boil and toss in the food bag for a certain amount of minutes and presto...you would have food ready to eat.
They may have had a burger in a bag, I can't recall as it has been many years, but it wouldn't surprise me.
So there you were, slice a bun, get some ketchup, mustard (Grey Poupon, if you were feeling like having a dash of continental European condiment), a nice pickle and your boiled in a bag burger.
If you so chose, you grab your plastic package of squeez cheez out of the fridge, and apply liberally.
Serves one.
