Sunday is a good day for a cheeseburger.
That's because it's National Cheeseburger Day and many fast-food chains and restaurants have special deals on the beloved sandwich.
About three-fourths of Americans (73%) said in a YouGov survey they like burgers. The survey showed cheese was the preferred topping, with 74% of people wanting it on their burger.
