I don't think most people go there for the burgers, they go to get their bumper stickers and then modify them.

Over the years probably 2/3 of their bumper stickers i've seen have been In and out Urge!

I usually just get a Double Double and go to Wendy's for fries and a Frosty. Now that's a fine fast food meal.

This would be the best fast food meal: Double Double In and Out Burger, Fries from MacDonald's (it's still the one thing they do better than anyone else) and a Shake from Carl's Jr. If you haven't had their hand-scooped shakes, you haven't lived. Better than any ice-cream shop I've ever been to. No Kidding. Carl's Jr.'s Six Dollar Burger is pretty damn good as well.

Wendy's IMHO...sucks...there is one across the street from me, and I never, ever eat there.


Some folks disagree.

The problem with fries at In-N-Out is that if you don't eat them while they're HOT they become hard and chewy and not very palatable. Hot out of the frier they're GRR-EAT. Ronald still makes good fries, as someone earlier stated. And a strong second to Carl's Jr.'s shakes. Fabulous!! SSZ

Lived in Cali for a while... all I'm going to say about them is this.......


Only in a place where rabbit food is concidered chic like Cali could their food be considered "great".... Their burgers are ok, but not something to write home about.

They use a different type of potato.

Is that true? I don't did their fries.

"Verses from the book of Mormon are printed on them.
"

Nope. They're verses from the Bible. They're on everything there. The burgers are great!

Triple! Well, their website says you can go higher than that.

Your most reminds when Jack-in-the-Box ran ads for its Ultimate Cheeseburger. The scenario was a taste testing and one of the men said, "I understand the meat and cheese but why a bun?" Unrelated, their short lived Colossus burger was just *too* big. In the observation booth, Mr. Box spat his coffee in surprise.

I love In-and-Out fries. Wendy's are probably best for a national chain.

Thankfully, FReeper CVENGR turned us on to the In-N-Out menu secrets.

The Hidden In-N-Out Burger (aka In and Out Burger) - The Most Accurate Secret Menu

In-N-Out Burger has a secret unpublished menu for insiders who are In-The-Know. Next time you're at In-N-Out, order a bag of these off-the-menu specials:

"3-by-3" = three meat patties and three slices of cheese.

"4-by-4" = four meat patties and four slices of cheese.

"2-by-4" = two meat patties and four slices of cheese.

*Note: You can get a burger with as many meat patties or cheese slices as you want. Just tell the In-N-Out Burger cashier how many meat patties and how much cheese you want and that is what you'll get! For instance, if you want 6 pieces of meat and 10 pieces of cheese tell them you want a "6-by-10."

"Double Meat" = like a Double Double without cheese.

"3 by Meat" = three meat patties and no cheese.

"Animal Style" = the meat is cooked and fried with mustard and then pickles are added, extra spread and grilled onions are added.

"Animal Style Fries" = fries with cheese, spread, grilled onions and pickles (if you ask for them).

"Protein Style" = for all you low-carbohydrate dieters, this is a burger with no bun (wrapped in lettuce).

"Flying Dutchman" = two meat patties, two slices of melted cheese and nothing else - not even a bun!

Fries "Well-Done" = extra crispy fries . . . even better than the regular!

Fries "Light" = opposite of fries well-done, more raw than most people like 'em

"Grilled Cheese" = no meat, just melted cheese, tomato, lettuce and spread on a bun.

"Veggie Burger" = burger without the patty or cheese. Sometimes we call this the "Wish Burger."

"Neapolitan" Shake = strawberry, vanilla and chocolate blended together.

The friendly employees of In-N-Out Burger will take your special order without question, if you use the right terminology. The printed receipt will have your special request typed on it just as we said it.

Try it!

No, it is a different species of potato they normally use. Some people love them, some hate them, but they are normally different (Kennebec potatoes?) than the traditional ones.

Yeah, the Nahum one is the one I've seen. Wikipedia says it's from the Hebrew Bible.

Nahum is in the Old Testament, Einstein. Right after Mikah and just before Hebakkuk - if my memory serves me correctly and my spelling isn't too far off.

Done the triple triple and protein style. Can't remember if I've done a 4 by 4 or not.

Their patties are really small. Both thin and small around. The smallest of any fast food chain I know of.
