Some Christians still observe the Sabbath such a Seventh Day Adventists, but the Sabbath is a part of the Old Covenant and thus should go the way of Pork restrictions and all the rest as far as Christians are concerned.

Also In-N-Out is run by Mormons and they are quite a bit different from other Christian Sects.

I didn't ask and I don't care. You're also wrong, they are not mormons.


Marriott is mormon.

Oh, that's right. It was the location in




Burbank .

OMG Burbank! Was Jay Leno there? j/k... he goes to Bob's.

I'll be in CA next week and it will be my first trip back where I will NOT be going to In n Out and and that feels pretty good.

My wife picked up InO on the way home from work yesterday and she said she walked up at the Frisco location. I guess they're training TX employees now because she mentioned that every person seemed to have a "buddy" guiding them. She also told me that she really threw the order taker off by order the food to go in a box with a lid. lol

With that article, Five Guys seems happy to have the In-N-Out competition. In Las Colinas, I think they will like it too: In-N-Out will bring people into the immediate area, and when people see the outrageous lines, they will go across the street to Five Guys. I think Five Guys will be particularly happy when that particular In-N-Out location opens.

P.S. That article didn't mention, however, that Five Guys, like Mooyah and Country Burger, server every order (including dine-in orders) as a to-go order which is horrible for the environment.

That doesn't mean wasting paper is a good thing.


There's no point in being wasteful for the sake of being wasteful, that's just childish.

Overpackaging in general is wasteful regardless of the product inside the packaging.

Sadly with fast food you can't recycle the containers usually because they've been contaminated by grease or other things; recyclers won't take them.

Indeed it is, which is why it's annoying that several places don't make a habit of asking you what you want your food/drinks in/on.

That's Bob's Big Boy which was Kip's here (to start another hamburger debate). I have a high school friend who takes his old Studebaker there all the time, we went with him a year or so ago -- the burger still tasted a bit like Kip's but it's been so long it was hard to be sure. We confirmed that many of the menu items are different because my friend brought an actual Kip's menu from the old Lakewood location (now a Bank of America).

The poor big boy statue would get kidnapped every year and put on our school front lawn on senior day.

Paper bags for eat-in orders when reuseable trays fit the bill for eat-in, and get, I dunno, reused?

How is that a stretch?
