I knew a guy who worked for IN-N-OUT. Their starting pay is about 1 or 2 dollars over minimum here in California. They paid higher wages than any other starting job in the area but they expected more out of there employees.

If you get some dry ice, I could supply mass quantities of BlueBell Homemade Vanilla Ice Cream for trades with the In-N-Out people!

I've never had one of theirs and they've probably never had one of ours!

Ha - that's the first thing I did when I saw this thread - look for a copycat, since I've never had one.

Sounds like the copycat also needs a good dose of my New Brockles dressing, instead of a Kraft 1000 Island (ptui). That's BestMaid Sandwich Spread, made in Ft Worth, so now we have something else to trade when we hit the road.

(Since I don't know In-N-Out OR Carls Jr., I'm glad it was cleared up that this Bible-scripture place is not the same one that had Paris Hilton bending waaayyy over to wash a car in its ads!)

I don't know if they still do this, but they used to out religious quotes on the soda cups.

The most "exotic" thing I've ever eaten was a burger from Jack in the Box.

Best burger chain in existence, imo.

RIP, Esther.

I did get someone's hard contact lens in a taco from Taco Bell once.

Here's hoping you didn't roll it around and suck on it like a Necco Wafer before you spit it out....

Back to thread topic - three years ago, Mrs. Bat and I actually had our Christmas Eve dinner from there; had planned to stop someplace sit-down after her Mass, but they'd all closed, except for In-N-Out....grabbed a couple of Double Doubles and fries, went home and scarfed 'em down.

Well, waint a minute. I did get someone's hard contact lens in a taco from Taco Bell once. Now THAT was fun, though I never did parlay that into my fortune...

Aww shucks. You could have been the one responsible for adding a line of text to all taco wrappers in the United States. I'm thinking it could read something like this --

"Caution! The taco you are about to enjoy may contain insertable eye wear."

It's why the no longer give out bumper stickers cuz people would cut the B and the R off an then stick them on their bumpers

Along this general line, there's a Dutch (?) owned bank out here called RABOBANK.....if I were sixteen, I'd do a midnight Vanna White thing and change a couple of letters so it'd read ROB A BANK.

Sigh...but I ain't, so I won't........probly not, anyhow.

Don't even start me on the chain called Angus Burgers and the damage that could be done with a few well placed shots from a bb gun.

My favorite is double-double animal style with animal style fries and a soft drink.

Hey Paulat - Double Double bump.

I went to SPU, too. What a sad day. Who's next to imprint Bible verse citations on cups?

May she Rest in peace. No in-N-outs in the Detroit area, however sure they are great burgers.

White Castels for dinner tonight.
