Say what you want about them, but In N Out is the taste of home. Can’t wait to go back to SoCal in September.

I was all about InO when I moved to California from Florida. Almost like a forbidden fruit sort of thing. 4x4, animal style. Side of fries, also animal style. Then a stomach ache for the rest of the evening. Totally worth it though.

But now I can’t honestly remember the last time I went to one. It’s been at least a year.

The only InO I’ve been to was in the Las Vegas area.

They don’t have them in New England, pretty sure.

There’s a whole string of them going along I-35 in Texas, which I believe is the furthest east the franchise goes. Seriously, check it out sometime on Google Maps. There’s probably 10 of them in the state, and all are directly near the interstate exits.

I think Utah has one or two locations, Nevada has a few, and Arizona has a few. I think the rest are all in California.

In and Out and its secret menu is dumb.

The best burger chain is/was Backyard Burgers. Most of them seem to have gone out of business, though. If you ever see one, just go.

They completely ruined me for ever eating at Hardee’s, Whataburger, Five Guys, and In N Out forevermore.

I love those smaller, lesser-known chains. Russell’s and Knollwood were two of my favorites back in LA. I don’t know if Knollwood still exists, but I was there when Russell’s finally went under. My dad turned me on to that place, and it was one of his favorites when he was a youngster.

Nor in the Midwest. Everything there is fresh, so all stores are within driving distance of their warehouse. I do wish they’d add another, more centrally-located, warehouse some day.

I order my fries cooked light, which means they’re kind of soggy, but I like them that way. Normally they’re too dry and crunchy, like those fry-like things they sell in cans at the grocery store.

Technically they’re national, but have an odd footprint from Nebraska to Florida. Most of them seem to be singular locations in their areas:
