Since only three people out of the 12 developed enteritis, the source of the health problem is likely to be one of the foods or drinks that only those three people consumed, rather than something everyone ate or drank. Therefore, the fact that the three patients all ate hamburgers is the most important assessment finding for the nurse to consider in identifying the source of the problem.
