So is In N Out really good or is it just a meme?
Everyone from California I've talked to acts like it's god's gift to earth or something.

>> No.6731215

It's not super great. It's above average for fast foot and relatively cheap. Animal style is better than their normal burgers in my opinion, and their spread is pretty damn good (always get extra). Their fries aren't the greatest, but some people love them.

Its alright better than Mc donalds, BK, carls, jack its a dollar more for a combo from each of these locations but its more better. You also have to eat it fresh fries become soggy quick and the bun has a habit of steaming in bag and falling apart.

But for the same price you can get a better bigger burger with better fries at diffrent joints.

>> No.6731228

It's quite good. It's not a restaurant burger, it's a classic fast food burger. But their ingredients are far superior to those of fast food restaurants, and their burger spread is delicious. It's also quite cheap.

I've never been a fan but my family swears by it. Their burgers are only okay, their fries are awful and way too crispy.

Nowadays they're pretty over-hyped, but maybe like 5 years ago before all of the buzzfeed-style "10 reasons why In-n-Out is God's gift to man" articles, I'd say the hype would be worth it.

For a simple fast-food spot, the burgers are great, although their fries are super hit-or-miss. They don't use the double-fry method that almost every other restaurant uses. For people who prefer In-N-Out's method, their fries are the best since no other restaurant makes their fries like that. For people who prefer the double-fry method, In-N-Out's fries are fucking terrible.

They are overrated considering how fucking often they are posted, but they really are good.

They are everything McDonalds wants to be: cheap, tasty 1960's american-style cheeseburgers, fries, shakes, and fountain drinks, not any other bullshit. Thin patties, crispy fries, and a 'hidden menu' that allows you to customize the size of your sandwich.

It's mostly meme. The food is hit or miss most of the time. The burgers are ok but aren't quite as good as Five Guys or even Whataburger. Cost wise, Whataburger is cheaper and Five Guys is overpriced so you get a middle ground with In n Out. But what the hell do I know, I like White Castle!

The main problem is that it's largely based in California. Now, as you know if you've ever been outside is that Californians are insufferable faggots, ESPECIALLY when it comes to food. They just keep talking until people accept their word as gospel.

In n' Out is good, definitely above other burgers. It's also cheap, unlike a comparable quality burger like five guys.

So what you end up with is the definition of overrated. Were Californians not so cancerous, it would be a non issue.
