D&D 5E Attacks VS. Attack Actions - The Burger Analogy

[Storyteller Hero]

What is this thread about?

What is gained by this burger analogy?

I don't even understand if it criticizes anything.

I was hungry and responding to a post on social media asking about how Extra Attack works.

I decided to create a bookmarkable reference for the future, and share with the forum since I've seen this issue come up more than once, particularly with new players.

I was inspired to make the burger analogy by my proximity to fast food. It seemed to be something that people could relate to.
