01\ FIVE GUYS CHEESEBURGER
Five Guys, 1-3 Long Acre, Covent Garden, London
THE P.M.A. PATTY
Oozing with brain-guarding ingredients, Five Guys’ cheeseburger will help you find the same positive mental attitude as its founder, stock trader Jerry Murrell, who gave up his career to form the company after reading a motivational quote in a magazine. It might not sound like smart business acumen, but by crafting a patty that puts your mind first, Murrell succeeded in his investment.
Eating 65-100g of lean red meat up to four times a week can halve your risk of depression, Deakin University found. So, with these patties containing 80% beef to 20% fat, it’s one happy meal. Even better, in the UK, Five Guys’ beef is from 120-day grain-finished Irish cows – a criteria met by just 1% of British beef.
Elsewhere in the kitchen, the buns are made with free-range eggs, boasting twice the depression- and dementiafighting omega-3 as caged ones. Plus, fries twice-fried in cholesterol-free peanut oil offer up an extra order of heart-protecting vitamin E. With recent evidence suggesting heart health is directly linked to mental fortitude, you’ll struggle to wipe the smile off your face.
