Food Nerds Make Odd Choice For Best Burger in Maine

There are so many food experts on the internet that sometimes it can be a bit overwhelming to decide who to listen to. From standards like Food Network to influencers on TikTok to food 'nerds' on sites like Chowhound, who knows the game the best?

The answer is nobody. Every individual has their own tastes and things they're looking for whenever they try to identify the very 'best' in a certain culinary lane.

Recently, the self-proclaimed food nerds at Chowhound released a list they called the 'hands down best burger in every state'. And their choice for Maine is an odd one.
