Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

Another day, another burger made out of anything other than buns.

The latest sees bread switched out for Yorkshire pudding, creating a sort of Sunday roast burger.

It is served in Rift & Co, which is the fancy new name for Vodka Revs, and was the brainchild of bar manager Jeremy Rose.

"I have seen the doughnut burger on a menu in a Leeds restaurant and thought I wanted to try and do something different," he said.

"The new menu will have a big burger selection but wanted something really that stands out on the menu."

Other arguably sacrilegious burgers to be conjured up recently include KFC's chicken-as-a-bun Double Down and a veggie burger that is supposed to taste as good as the real thing and oozes plant 'blood'.

Ambrose insists this one does taste good.

"It is good, really! Everyone is very eager to try it," he added.

"People want to try something different that they maybe wouldn’t have at home when they go out to eat."
