“I dropped my burger on the floor. Now it’s ground beef”

“Ground beef” is the subject of an obvious pun:
 
“I dropped my burger on the floor. Now it’s ground beef.”
 
“I dropped my beef on the ground haha ground beef” was cited on Twitter on September 24, 2011. “Dang it I dropped my hamburger now it’s ground beef” was cited on Twitter on July 29, 2013. The joke became popular in 2014.
 
Another “ground beef” joke is: “What do you call a cow with no legs?”/“Ground beef.”
