Left-Leaning Fast Food Fans Lose Appetite After In-N-Out Burger Donates To CA GOP
Fortune.com ^ | 8/30/2018 | GRACE DOBUSH

The late CEO, Rich Snyder, was an evangelical Christian and supporter of Republican candidates, and current president Lynsi Snyder is also devout. Like cult chain Chick-fil-A, In-N-Out doesn’t make its founders’ Christian values a secret, per se. Customers just might be so focused on their Animal Style burgers that they don’t notice the references to Bible quotes printed on the wrappers.

However, it’s not clear that the company’s current leadership is nearly as aligned with the Republicans as that of Chick-fil-A, a company that has publicly come out against LGBT rights. According to campaign finance filings, In-N-Out Burger also donated $30,000 last year and $50,000 this year to Californians for Jobs and a Strong Economy, a political action committee that supports business-friendly Democratic candidates.

In-N-Out’s reputation for fantastic burgers is bolstered by its policy of paying more than minimum wage and offering competitive benefits for fast food workers. While the simple menu offers only burgers, fries and shakes, the chain’s secret menu is legendary. Founded in 1948 and still family-owned, In-N-Out only operates in six western states—Arizona, California, Nevada, Oregon, Texas and Utah—but has Colorado in its sights.

FINALLY! After one year, I could not even sit down either with a party of one or 5. It’s almost impossible to sit down even after 2 PM.

So F these leftards anyway. I hope they really do their their boycott instead of paying lip service. I mean, where are these clowns gonna go for their burgers? Umami? Overrated. Carls? LOL

Tofu to the left of me, Burgers on the right.
I’m back at In and Out again...

Wish we had them here in the south.

Used to be a place here in Atlanta called 7 Steers
and they sold all kinds of burgers, blue cheese,
Hickory, absolutely the best.

Out of business years ago though.

Dude, I’m in Hollywood and In N Out 2 is blocks further away. My location is heaven. Even after the gay marriage nonsense during the obama years, it’s packed full EVERY DAY except Sundays. Last night was no different, bumper to bumper. (I think CFA does it intentionally because the drive thru is ridiculously small)
