If you know anyone from Southern California, you've probably heard them wax poetic about In-N-Out Burger.
The legendary family-run chain is now winning over legions of new fans, but farther east than ever before as two new restaurants open in the north Texas towns of Frisco and Allen.
Cars lined up as far as two miles for the drive-thrus, and fans spent the night in the parking lot, for the chance to get a bite of the first In-N-Out burgers east of Arizona.
Danielle DeInnocentes of The Colony, Texas, broke into tears after she bit into a Double-Double, a famous In-N-Out sandwich made from two meat patties and two slices of cheese.
Ms DeInnocentes is originally from Rialto, California, and in a video posted online, she says she is ecstatic that In-N-Out opened a restaurant two miles from her house.
She told restaurant staff: 'You're going to see my every day'.
Ms DeInnocentes called the Double-Double 'the best hamburger in the world', and said, 'Pinch me, it doesn't feel real!'

Much better one in Chino though.

That’s what I thought. LoL

They were all set up for a Savannah, Georgia location years ago but it fell through.
WTF is a “Danielle DeInnocentes of The Colony”?

Much better one in Chino though.I quit going to the Chino show ...tired of parking in a hot dusty cornfield that turns to mud pies by afternoon...I always had to take my truck right to the car wash before coming home...keep in mind I'm a pilot and mechanic and go to all the shows and have for 40 years so I get to see almost everything that happens aviation wise on the west coast even if I miss a few..:oP

BTW I found a better Chick-Fil-A. My local Piggy Wiggly makes cheddar buns. I buy those and get the Chik’s chicken strips. Awesome.

Don't know about the best in the world, but it's way, way better than the stuff you get at the big chains - been eating there since I was a kid and I still drive through and get a Double-Double, protein-style with onions, once a week or so. In-N-Out has been one of the good parts of California life for decades. I'm glad for Texas.

I have had two serious breakfasts in the south.
One was in Charleston SC and the other was in a private residence in Cobb Co Ga. Holy ****! it lasted for hours.
“Yall need to eat. I made this special for you”.... LoL!

For some reason, I find the name In n Out a little off putting. Wasn't there a Kubrick about that? If memory serves, it came out after my favorite, Strangelove.

This is the BEST fast food ever made and I want more! Hope they expand to NM! I always get me a #2. Try it and you will like it.
If you don’t like it, can I lick your cheese paper? Smell the onion? Love my InO Burger.

The last decent burger besides my own was at Ruby Tuesdays in Ohio.
They got stupid with the sugar in the jack daniels sauce but it was a good burger.
It sure was better than her is your Mc Stuff
