Why is it so loved? And what is so good about it? I mean, the burgers are pretty good. But people always make such a big deal out of it... What am I missing?

I guess if you're from where they originated, it would be kinda special for you...

They have one that's about an hour or so away from where I am currently. And every time we went to a funeral or something in that area, they always wanted to go. I had never been, so I went. And it was good. But they literally wanted to go every time... which could mean everyday for a couple weeks, depending on the schedule... I ended up going to the Chipotle across the parking lot. Mainly because I had already have In-N-Out like three times that week. And we also didn't have a Chipotle in town at that time...

Because the food is good, and its always hot and fresh because they dont hold anything hot and they make it to order, which other fast food places claim to do but dont actually do.

They also cut all their vegetables there and punch their fries in house.

I guess I don't really notice their veggies, as I don't get them on my burgers... they're fries are ok, I guess. I don't really remember them like standing out or anything. Honestly, I don't want this to sounds bad, but I don't really think it matters if they cut them in house as long as they taste good...

Most people dont care or can taste the difference. When I worked at outback we cut and blanched our fries the day of, and then we switched to frozen ones and people overwhelmingly preferred those.

The thing with in n out is you know what youre getting. If you love it, its always going to taste the same. Their menu will never change. The way they do things will never change.

Yeah. I guess that makes sense. I guess it's just not my thing. Also, not big on the whole menu thing... Only like 4 things on the menu. To order the rest, I have to go online... Like I said, the food wasn't bad at all. It was good. I just didn't know why it was so overhyped...

I don't remember Fove Guys being that expensive. Though it has been years. And my hometown doesn't really have an In-N-Out, so I guess I wouldn't know the price difference...

As much as I love what-a-burger, I like Braums more. Probably harder to find in some areas, though. I
was disappointed when they went from 1/3 to 1/4lb burgers, but they still taste incredible. Plus I love
crinkle cut fries and actual ice cream shakes. In-and-Out is good, but I don't even see it as top 3 in my state.

Five Guys burgers are 6-8 dollars.
Shake Shack burgers are 5.29 for a single, 8.09 for a double.
In-n-Out burgers are 2.40 for a single, 3.45 for a double.

The price difference is insane, and quality is similar. I would say in terms of burger quality, Shake Shack is the best, then In-N-Out, then Five Guys, and in terms of quantity its reversed, its Five Guys, then In-N-Out, then Shake Shack. But regardless I'd rather go to In-N-Out over either any day because its much cheaper and practically as good.

Like I said, it's been years. So, I probably just forgot(when it came to prices). So, I guess they are more expensive... Though, I think I remember liking Five Guys burgers more than In-N-Out. I'be never been to Shake Shack, so I can't really rate it... Though I guess it really doesn't matter much. When I go back home, the only one there is Five Guys, so....
