(proof) The first layer, and therefore the first section of your essay, is the top bun. This will be your introduction paragraph. Below the top bun there should be meat, lettuce, and pickles. These will represent the body and the controlling ideas of your essay. Between the meat, lettuce, pickles, and buns should be a mound of tasty fillings, which are vital in a burger because it produces more flavor. These will represent the points and evidence of your controlling ideas in your essay. The last part of your essay will be your conclusion, which is known as the bun on the bottom of the burger. You must sandwich all the information you have gathered together between the introduction and conclusion. The two buns hold everything in place, which makes for a delicious finished product.

(proof) Xinli believed this was nonsense until her English teacher told the class that as a former employer at McDonalds, she has learned that the organisation often purchases the mutated chickens for the burgers. They are likely to purchase a one legged chicken rather than a healthy one because the price is much cheaper. Furthermore, the entire chicken (including its bones) is then thrown into a machine and mashed up into a perfect round slice of meat to create the Junior Chicken. After being informed of this dreadful fact, Xinli has realised that the customers at McDonald’s do not even bother to ask what the burger contains because they merely care about filling their empty bellies.

Contrast:
(pt) One can easily differentiate the difference between a burger that contains only ketchup and a burger that contains only mayonnaise.
(proof) Ketchup makes for a much smoother feeling, sweeter tasting burger, almost as if there is a salty liquid tomato between your buns. Whereas mayonnaise makes for a creamy, slightly sour flavor, which tastes as though a lemony lime, a touch of vinegar, and various herbs have been combined together to form a dressing for your burger.

(pt) Michelle enjoys eating her Big Mac in a very orderly fashion.
(proof) Since her mouth is too small, she first takes the top of the bun in her hand and eats it. Then she eats the beef and middle layer of bread, aligning them together with precision and cautious not to allow the beef to slip off. Next, she carefully stacks every last bit of the burger left together and stuffs it into her mouth, savouring its exquisite flavours. She then picks up the lettuce pieces that had dropped, tilts her head back, pinches each lettuce strip and drops it into her mouth one by one. Lastly, she takes many sips of her sprite to help quench her thirst.
