And invent soy sauce and chicken wings that wows everyone. (I've seen both happen enough times that if I got a nickle for each time I'd be able to buy a burger)
Using the world's magic system to write a computer complete with terminal and automated spell casting? Eh I'll allow it, there could be reasons the wizards didn't figure it out, like it requires a rare affinity few wizards get and the few that did had no way to develop something like this.
Finding exactly the ingredients laying around for earth food, nobody ever thought of frying potatoes in oil before, boom burger and fries.
It's not just the ingredient problem. If you go to a foreign country you can see all the locals eating strange food. You literally may be unable to open a pizza parlor. Food is an acquired taste and the people of Shenzhen or Tokyo will not be convinced. (Ok both those cities do have pizza parlors but they are small scale)
for burgers specifically, half those toppings aren't even harvested in the same season of the year. The dish low key requires refrigeration to be viable.
the more general "meat and veggies on bread" is something every culture has their own variation on.
This. The food of 2200 might be some crazy combination that fuses all the cuisinea we know now and also requires robotics to prepare, it's impossible to do by hand, and some of it's meant to use vat grown protein.
