The overhype is ridiculous
We should start calling it "Hollywood burgers"

I'll bet anybody $1000 that I can make a better burger at home.

In 'n Out burgers are good value. For $5 you can get either Cheeseburger and shake or burger/fries/soda. For the price they are good places to eat.

For me, it has nothing to do with where it's from, it's simply not a good burger, especially given the hype. TEH END.

I'm going to go on record and say that this place is not as good as sparkles, hubcaps, or primes beck. Hell, I'll bet one months pay that its not even as good as whataburger.

I like to stop by In-n-Out Burger once in a while when in California. Wouldn't go here though. If I'm getting a burger here then I prefer to go somewhere like Jerry Built. When on the road in Texas it is always Whataburger.

You'd have to be pretty incompetent in the kitchen to NOT be able to make a better burger at home than In N Out. Fast food, on the run, drive-thru convenience is never the same as home made.

But as mentioned ad nauseum, it's good value for the price when you're not able to take the time to make a great homemade burger. Mine are fantastic but I still don't mind In N Out once in a while.

The hype over how horrible In N Out is pretty funny.

BTW: My parents LOVE What-a-burger & would drive past In N Out given the choice.

BTW, some IN-N-out place, from pictures, look cool.

If that happened , I'd move to that area. This news may be enough to compel me to move away - I can't afford the calories from eating there everyday. Give me a Wegmans, though, and we'd stay. That might be the hardest part of leaving where we are - five min to ours. Is there a Houston near-analogue?
