You'd put Culvers above In N Out? Interesting... I've never been to In N Out but we have a lot of Culvers and I like them. If that's the case then I won't really have to bother with In-N-Out
I know. Only reason I first tried In-N-Out was on my trip to Irvine last year. Although they have them here now in Texas.
Culvert's is also better for the price although not all of them have drive-thrus but the one around here does.
Same with El Pollo Loco. It's such shitty chicken I'm surprised they stay in business.
Shens ..... NOTHING competes with White Castle! :thumbsdown:
After watching Harold & Kumar and eating the frozen white castles, I made the pilgrimage to a WC while I was in NJ.
The only thought in my mind while actually consuming the real thing was "Fucking disgusting" - all I could taste was ketchup and grease.
Bought 6 sliders, we ate 3 between the 3 of us.
Clearly I was not stoned/hungry enough.
Checkers > *
I had Checkers in Orlando and mud say it was pretty good for chain food.
Agreed. After moving to this area where they have White Castle, I've tried it a couple times. Always really bad... burgers taste like nothing but onions and fries are ALWAYS old and soggy. Every time.
White castle is gross, and I don't know anybody who likes them if they didn't grow up with them. I think it's some weird psychological attachment from childhood. No normal adult who tried them for the first time as an adult would ever go back.
Funny, that's how I feel about the In-n-out patties.

In&Out patties aren't the best, but they're far superior to whataburger. Whataburger patties are closer to burgerking's, but they aren't microwaved and the bun & veggies are fresher.
In n Out patties aren't thick and juicy if your looking for that so I could see why some don't like it. But the combination of cheese, fresh lettuce and tomato, the spread, grilled onions and a perfectly toasted bun.. can't be beat for the price imo.
Is there a Shake Shack overrated thread yet? Cause there should be.

Eh, if that's the case I probably wouldn't like it. Burger should be all about the patty. If you want fresh veggies eat a salad... people put too much shit on their burger.

I've never tried Whataburger. Don't really see them around whenever I am in the United States of America.

Whataburger is located mostly in the Southern US, typically in the Texas / Louisiana area. They started in Corpus Christi, TX and didn't really franchise out farther.
They actually opened one in Alabama while I was there, but they closed after like a year.

Lol ok, I need to get a triple to taste the meat. I promise I will do that next time and report back.

Really you just need to get it without that crappy spread. Don't get animal style, because that just adds even more of the spread. Pretty much you can only taste the spread. Blech...
Onion (prepared how you like, I like it raw), pickle, mustard, no spread. Makes it OK. Not a real fan of InO though. It is a good value though, if I was broke I would probably be a big fan.
what, the spread is crucial. I probably killed 5 packets of spread last night between the fries and burger.
fuuuck now I want more InO.
Anyone who says whataburger has better burgers than in&out has no taste, whatsoever. Whataburger patties are flavorless thin pieces of nothing.
Carls Jr. & Hardees are far better than both, but again, more expensive.
Eh spreads cool but usually I do a 2x1 or 3x1 (not a huge fan of american cheese) mustard/ketchup instead of spread with raw onions.
