Why do people that have never had In n Out love to hate on it. Us west coasters know this is true for 95% of In n Out haters on this board. I just feel sorry for you guys. It's always the same kind of post
>last time I was in LA I finally tried In n Out and was completely disappointed... blah blah blah blah blah...
Maybe one day you guys will actually get to try it :(

[Anonymous No.9173613]

It's because like everything else califaggots praise, it's not that amazing.
It's fine. That's the adjective to describe it. "Acceptable for the price". It's a sloppy 50's style drive-thru burger, but you cucks have to pretend like everything in your state is straight from God Almighty himself to justify your awful living conditions.
Then when people visit and try it, they find out it's just an average fast food burger for a cheap price, and they wonder what the fuck all the hype was.

As a person who lives in NYC I'm envious as fuck that we don't have In n Out or Whataburger. I really wish they'd bring their chain to the east coast. With that being said, Five Guys is objectively better but In n Out is good.

Five Guys, In n Out, Whataburger, Wendy's, and White Castle is the holy grail of burger joints.

I lived in Phoenix most of my life.They finally got an In n Out in the late 90's. It's a good fast food burger. I'd go back again. Don't care for the fries.
They are definitely better than Whataburger though. I like Whataburger too but, let's be honest, nothing great has ever come out of Texas.

OP, you are a faggot. Shake Shack is better, Five Guys is better, Fat Burger is better. Hell, fucking random burger places are better. They used fucking cottonseed oil to fry their fries your dumbass. THAT SHIT IS NOT SUPPOSED TO BE EATEN. Burgers are thin, UNSEASONED, and the fries are shit tier as well. The only thing that makes the burger slightly enjoyable is the grilled onions, which literally any decent burger joint will have. I am a california native and hate the fucking undeserved adoration this places gets. ANY chain burger place is bullshit anyways no point in arguing over which pile of shit is superior. As far as the NYC guy complaining about lack of burger places? fuck you for being so stupid.

anyone who says they like in n out fries is either lying or they have some sort of sentimental reason for liking them. that or they have bad taste in fries

also, the cheese is absolute garbage. taste and texture and quality is just trash processed american cheese

but, the lettuce and tomato and onion quality (pickles too) is elite and 100% consistently fresh and good across the hundreds of in n outs. literally exactly the same freshness and goodness at every single one. the meat is elite and tasty and the buns are elite

to add to all this it's cheap as hell, you can get two double burgers and some shitty fries and it's like $8

Five guys has a lot of ingredients that they cannot seem to properly place on a burger. Their condiments always seep into the bun and shit always falls out as you are trying to eat it. The only good thing about them is their Cajun fries but even then their fries are greasier than average.

Like most people here have said, In-N-Out is okay but Californians, like New Yorkers, believe they're the center of the universe. So their regional chain must of course be the best thing ever.

Five Guys and White Castle are a little better. Whataburger is miles ahead.

Grew up in AZ, had InO for like 4 years. Currently in SC. Honestly I dont miss it. their burgers are great, fries, are meh and I dont drink anything but water or unsweetened ice unless it has booze in in it so shakes go out the window. They do fantastic things like keeping their menu simple and bringing in fresh food. But if I wanna burger I'll make one. If I dont, I'll swing buy a local joint and get something else. Fuck I wish I had pics of the buffalo burgers and purple tader chips the wife for lunch this afternoon.

Five Guys became a hit because all the fast food burger chains on the east coast are shit. We don't have In N Out/Fatburger/Whataburger, hell, we don't even have the slightly upgraded fast food joints like Jack in the Box/Carls Jr or even shit like Rallys in most places. It's literally just McDonalds, BK, or Wendy's, and that's it. Those are the only 3 major burger chains on the east coast. So literally anything that came along and tasted better than that was going to be a hit.

Five Guys is good. The beef patties are tasty as hell when they're covered in cheese. Quality ingredients. Like others have said though it's over priced for what it is. And their fries are fucking garbage. They're fresh, which sounds great, but you have to eat them in under 5 minutes before they get cold. Then they're just hard and stale tasting. The cajun fries are a slight upgrade. They'll try to charge you like 5-6 dollars for a basic hot dog or a grilled cheese. They won't make you cheese fries either.

I've lived on both coasts and I've had both places plenty of times. In N Out is better. Five Guys got big cause there was no real competition. If In N Out moved in on their turf, they'd be in trouble.

I live in california and have only ever seen one five guys. I drive by it sometimes still. Its either modestly full or empty like the burger king across the street from it. Meanwhile i have gone past several in n outs and every single time there was a big line of cars or the inside was full. In n out just fucking prints money and is the best fast food hamburger without a doubt

The best burger I've ever had was from 'White Mana' in Hackensack NJ.

[Anonymous No.9175342]

Califag here, in n out is overhyped. It's just your average "fresh" fast food burger. We love it so much because it's better tasting and cheaper than the national chains. That's all. Midwest and east coast both have their own options for that.

I wouldn't say people hate on it but it really doesn't live up to the hype.

I was in CA last week and tried In'n'Out for the 2nd time. Its as another anon said, an acceptable fast food burger for the price, roughly 1 step above McDonald's burgers.

Off the top of my head I'd rank:

>Five Guys
>Smash Burger
>Jack in the Box
>Freddy's

As all objectively superior burger chains to In'n'Out, not to mention the many smaller regional ones like Park Burger (Denver) or Dick's (Seattle).

That being said I did try the Animal Fry's which were fucking God Tier.
