She's an escort and presumably to super rich clientele what with yknow, the movie. She's probably not supposed to look poor
The post says born rich looking. I don't think people who are born into money become escorts.
If you're an escort for rich people you generally are expected to also look like a rich person. Especially if you're going to a weird exclusive dinner thingy.
getting out my calipers ah yes... 6-figure parentage with 50% chance of landlord
seriously wtf the girl is dressed up to go to the fancy restaurant, she obv looks rich, but its not her fucking skull shape
americans can only understand cinematic language when it's related to burgers.
i mean she pulled it off in The VVitch
Spoilers
In the scene where she eats the cheeseburger, the chef had just announced that he was about to kill everyone at the restaurant in a ritual murder. The woman character tells the chef to make a cheeseburger to prove that he has really cooking talent and is not just a pretentious hack. The chef complies because he's a massive narcissist. The woman character is fearing for her life when she takes a bite of the cheeseburger. She takes a small bite and then asks for the burger to be taken "to go" so that she can escape from being murdered.
Would you eat a massive bite of cheeseburger when the chef just said he was going to kill you? A small bite of burger seems appropriate for the situation of the scene. Twitter discourse is so stupid.
She doesn't ask him to make her a burger in order to prove that he's a real chef and he doesn't comply because he's a narcissist, I'm kind of surprised how you could read the scene like that?
The chef is deeply unhappy with his life, where he has ended up and what he is doing. He is completely alienated from his labour, which has become feeding slop to uncaring rich assholes. The last time he felt joy and connection with his labour, was as a young man selling simple food to good folk. It was when he sold cheap cheeseburgers.
She asks him for a cheeseburger because of this, she wants to show that she "gets him" and to remind him that not all is lost. She is nervous because she is out of options and this is a huge gamble. When she asks him for the bag "to go" she is negotiating a way out within the confines of the system the chef feels trapped in.
It has nothing to do with having to prove himself, it has to do with being reminded of why he chose to serve food for a living in the first place. She is rewarded because she reconnects him with that base instinct.
Edit: fixed punctuation
"Make me a burger you pathetic man"
"Yes mommy"
The escort escaped by using her skilled labor. Did no one else catch that?

I'd take a big bite 
If I'm dying I'll die full
She eats the rest as she watches the place burn to the ground from a safe distance
The funniest part of the scene is where she says "I think my eyes were bigger than my stomach", with ATJ's big eyes looking at him. It had to be a joke right?

Considering part of what saves her is that she's showing that he can make good food that's not some pretentious deconstruction of food, and also that she's not some bougie fuck like the rest of the restaurant guests, I'd say taking a big sloppy ass greasy bite out of that fucker like she's hungover at Five Guys would have been the more appropriate move.
I think I remember her doing it like that when she was on the boat.
No, it's cause an actor is too rich to know how to act. She can play a puritan former wife just fine, but she's too born rich to convincingly eat a hamburglar
I'm somehow not believing that knowing "how to eat cheeseburger" is a class signifier. She also finishes eating the burger pretty normally before the end credits when she is escaping on the boat. I am a huge fan of cheeseburgers myself and it looks to me that she was eating the burger pretty normally at the ending. But what do I know? I'm not a twitter burger phrenologist.
I forgot about the boat part. Yeah, she chimps down on that burg pretty hard then.
It's borgar not burger.
I prefer borgir myself
tbf has there ever been a convincing looking poor person in a big hollywood film? At least in the past like 20 or so years.
that being said Anna Taylor Joy is not beating the Buenos Aires allegations
She does just bite off a little bit of the burger patty and I don't think even touches the bun with her mouth.
🍔 
It takes a lot of work to look waifish
But arent waifs suposed to be the poorest people?
How do you eat burgers that were as tall as that one? It looks like she was biting out the bottom half which I do too on tall burgers, then grab a second bite in the same spot to even it out. You all running around out there with snake jaws
You smoosh it while juice runs down your jaw.
I once filmed a commercial were I had to take a bite out of a sandwich. Around take #12 I'd eaten about 4½ sandwiches and I couldn't get myself to do more than take an itty bitty bite. That itty bitty bite was the take they decided to use for when I tore into the sandwich.
I'm a normal person who eats sandwiches in a normal way, but not in that one take.
She eats it normally though? She's chilling on a boat and noms it like you do
I have bad news for you, "comrade"
sike, haven't nor will see that movie, or movies in general
Good, movies are revisionist bourgeois decadence. The only good entertainment is watching grass grow
The only good entertainment is the first Shrek film
You fell for my trap! Shrek 2 is also good. 
From afar
grass
Not wheat? Or rye? Are you perchance a kulak letting his fields lay fallow to deny others produce?
So what I've gathered from this thread is that the film apparently wasn't about cooking people and turning them into burgers? Weird ass marketing then, glad I didn't see it.
It was about pretentious rich assholes being murdered by the fancy chefs who serve them because the chefs come to realize that the prestige/high pay/etc isn't worth having to deal with the bourgeois. Spoilers for the entire movie.
spoiler
In particular, the head chef who has a very prestigious position cooking food for the rich became so alienated that he mass murders the latest group of the ultra-wealthy who patronize his restaurant. He lets the main character live because she isn't ultra-rich, just an escort who was hired to be some rich foodie guy's date. The pivotal scene of the movie is when she asks for just a normal cheeseburger because the main course of "seven types of foam served on a log" wasn't actually food.
Now let's see her eat a bacon butty 
Absolute banger of a movie.
Burger (Hamburger), Burghur (English cognate for Bourgeois),and Bourgeois are all doublets of the same word.
