No bias eebmg, you heard her correctly. When I heard her say that, my initial reaction was oh, you poor dear. She had never had an In N Out burger before. For those of you in other parts of the country that have never heard of In N Out burgers, it's a family owned string of restaurants. In N Out food is very popular. You can't go through their drive through without enduring a long line, regardless of the hour of the day. My whole family loves In N out burgers. It's much better than McDonald's.
In-N-Out Burger is an American regional
chain of
fast food restaurants with locations primarily in the
American Southwest and Pacific coast.
[2] It was founded in
Baldwin Park, California in 1948 by
Harry Snyder and
Esther Snyder. The chain is currently headquartered in
Irvine, California and has slowly expanded outside
Southern California into the rest of
California, as well as into
Arizona,
Nevada,
Utah,
Texas, and
Oregon. The current owner is
Lynsi Snyder, the Snyders' only grandchild.
As the chain has expanded, it has opened several distribution centers in addition to its original Baldwin Park location. The new facilities, located in
Lathrop, California;
Phoenix, Arizona;
Draper, Utah; and
Dallas, Texas will provide for potential future expansion into other parts of the country.

In-N-Out Burger has resisted
franchising its operations or
going public; one reason is the prospect of quality or customer consistency being compromised by excessively rapid business growth.
[6] The company's business practices have been noted for employee-centered personnel policies. For example, In-N-Out is one of the few fast food chains in the United States to pay its employees more than state and federally mandated
minimum wage guidelines – starting at US$11.00 per hour in California, as of May 2017.
[7] The In-N-Out restaurant chain has developed a highly loyal customer base,
[8][9][10] and has been rated as one of the top fast food restaurants in several customer satisfaction surveys.
