It’s untenable for In-N-Out to play vaccination police.....this looks like a move OUT of California.....not to mention taxes.
The story indicates sourcing for foodstuffs in close by in California, so if she finds it elsewhere.....SEE YA Suckers, Go East !
Publix sources all or most of their goods from centrally located Lakeland. If they can, so can IN-N-Out.
Met her at the Pomona Drags she is sofa king cool too
Come on down!!! I want a double double animal style
Not what I think of when I think of Florida. Can someone point to a cattle ranch in Florida?
****************
The Deseret Ranch (Morman) is the largest cow/calf ranch in the US. with 300 thousand acres, and in the north there is the Whitehurst Cattle Company outside Williston, Florida.
Today, there are more than 886 thousand head of cattle and 15,000 beef producers throughout Florida.
In the ‘80s we owned a herd of dairy cattle in Florida. It was an investment through a management corporation. Never saw the cows, but the investment was profitable.
Speaking for myself, I'd love In-and-Out Burger to come to Florida.
Yes. There is a rather large one directly across from me in the Florida Panhandle.
They are all over central Fl. H M Cattle Co is one of many. Florida is not just beaches and amusement parks. Look around.
All the food, including the beef, is fresh, never frozen or preserved. Even the french fries are sliced and prepared on site from whole potatoes. My understanding is the supplier-direct-to-restaurant supply chain could not stretch beyond a certain point. If new suppliers of equal quality can be found in Florida, perhaps that changes.
Driven through quite a bit of Florida, and can say there are many cattle ranches throughout the state.
Kempfer Cattle Co. represents one of Florida’s 18,433 beef cattle ranches, a quantity that ranks 12th in the nation. Likewise, Florida ranks 12th in beef cow inventory with 877,000 beef cows as of Jan. 1, 2014, according to the National Agricultural Statistics Service.
Access to nearly year-round grass gives Florida a significant advantage in profitable beef cattle production. In fact, three of the nation’s five largest beef cow-calf ranches operate in Florida, not far from tourist attractions like Walt Disney World and Universal Studios.
I like their burgers. Both the aroma and the flavor. Each time I visit one, I too am puzzled as to why they continue to serve such tasteless, lousy fries.
Maybe there’s a big market for such flat fries.
To each his own fry.
BTTT!
Hi.
Horse ranches too. For a small example, check out Ocala.
Most of the southern counties (minus the oil wells), up through the center part of the state to I 10 have cattle ranches.
At one time (circa 1950), Florida produced the 2nd amount of beef compared to TX. Ever hear of the Florida redneck cracker?

Thirty-nine years old, worth $4.2 billion in 2021 according to Forbes, only grandchild of the founders, evangelical Christian, but already married four times(?), four children.
I’d be ok if she was the future ex-Mrs. twister. Nice, big settlement and free In-N-Out for life.🙂
I apologize. You wanted specifics.

“I never got why In-N-Out never really expanded to the east coast.”
1. Their expansion is self-financed from their own profits.
2. Their business model is centered around FIRST building a massive central food factory hub that bakes their bread fresh daily, grinds their own burger fresh daily, cuts and preps their potatoes fresh daily, cuts and preps their lettuce and tomatoes fresh daily, and then trucks everything fresh and un-frozen to their restaurants that have to lie within a daily trucking radius from the hub factory.
3. In-n-Out JUST built such a hub facility in Colorado Springs, Colorado and has JUST begun the restaurant build-out that will span a multi-state trucking radius, having built only four restaurants out of the hundred or more they’ll be able to support from that facility. This will be their third hub, after the one in California and Dallas.
4. VERY unclear if they’ll want to start a fourth hub in florida simultaneous with the one just getting going in Colorado.
Thank God they’re (already) in Texas.
Just had the single burger, two days ago. Hubs like the double double burger.
The ONLY drive thru burger we’ll ever order (which isn’t often, as we’re not drive thru fans. WILL STOP for In-n-Out burgers, though!)
