In-N-Out burger and fries

I'd recognize the drab bomb shelter lighting temperature of an In-N-out any day, with or without the food.

35

That's cleanliness you can see.

They do that to keep people awake. Customers and workers alike. That's just what I've heard from the workers, though.

- It's also a pretty common lighting choice in just about any office building or commercial entity. When you're as big as a giant fast food franchise, I can see the likelihood someone might have done the research necessary to conclude it was worth getting this lighting specifically to avoid sleeping customers and staff but I think it's also quite likely they're just cheap.

Nice gray light.

Did someone dump a can of cream-of-mushroom soup on that? I don't know what I'm looking at.

It's a quarter cup of cat barf. It's difficult at first to get your pets to barf into measuring cups, but it absolutely can be done. Carrot, not the stick. Positive reinforcement.

- Had a dog who was able to puke in bags. Can confirm: training is key!

They're called Animal Style fries

5
- Because they look and taste like dog food.
  
  How about some People Style fries, please?

Looks like they put some queso on an order of cheese fries.

- Thousand Island dressing + nacho ~~sauce~~thermoplastic sealant.
  
  remember. Thousand Island is McDonald's "secret sauce". (though there's some distinctions in their particular thousand island.)

Sir I believe a toddler barfed on your fries

15

Their fries are always so chalky and dry, they legitimate taste fucking disgusting. Burgers are amazing, though.

13

Amazing burgers and the worst fast-food fries on the planet. In ‘n Out is such a weird dichotomy.

12
- Order them well done and they improve drastically.

I don't like their fries all that much either, but on the off chance that you've been eating them unsalted, they don't salt them, just give you the salt on the side.

Cheeseburger with no onions and animal style fries I believe, and a beauty at that!

7

I'll take a Double Triple Bossy Deluxe, on a raft, four-by-four animal-style, extra shingles with a shimmy and a squeeze, light axle grease, make it cry, burn it, and let it swim.

- We serve food here sir

Next time order with chopped chilies on top of the fries

7

I get them in the burger. Double-double with a whole grilled onion and chopped chilies, animal style fries. It's what makes the world go round. Almost forgot to mention, toasted bun to help keep it from falling apart.

This feels like a post from an In-N-Out higher up

For me, it's the Flying Dutchman Animal Style. The best fast food sandwich. I even ask for extra chopped chilis and the staff is so friendly and more than willing to oblige.

One time I asked for an extra slice of cheese and they gave me three. I said, "Wow, three for free!" and the nice friendly In-N-Out worker laughed and said, "I'm going to call you 3-for-free!".

Now the staff greets me with "hey it's 3-for-free!" and ALWAYS give me three slices. It's such a fun and cool atmosphere at my local In-N-Out restaurant, I go there at least 3 times a week for lunch and a large milkshake, 1-2 times for breakfast on the weekend, and maybe once for dinner when I'm in a rush but want a great meal that is affordable, fast, and can match my daily nutritional needs.

I even dip my fries in milkshake, it's delicious! What a great restaurant.

In n out is the most mid fast food I've ever eaten.

Thank god I’m not the only one. I didn’t grow up on them, being from the east coast, and I think it tastes like a dressed up McDonald’s burger (animal style included). It’s just not great. Hell, Freddy’s and Culvers is better.

Oh their fries are absolute trash, that I agree on.

3

Agreed! The fries are so bad! Absolutely disgusting no flavor and limp and soggy every time. They just slice them and toss them in the frier. Good fires are pre-boiled with a little bit of vinegar and then flash fried, frozen, then fried again. That’s how you get the soft core but nice bubbly crispy skin.

I'm not a fan of animal style fries, but I do like their fries. I get a laugh at how everyone hates on them for having the least processed fries in the business. Long before in n out was in my area, every now and then my dad would make fries out of fresh potatoes. He would do it just like in n out. Cut up the potato, fry it up and add salt. I get that nostalgia plays a part, but those were the best damn fries I ever ate as a child. In n out's taste very similar especially if you get them fresh. (Still not the same, but it's very good) People always complain that they aren't as crisp, but honestly, just appreciate that they are made differently, and expect something different. There are literally 3 ingredients. Potato, oil, and salt, and you can watch them manually cutting potatoes from the drive thru or lobby. Imo that's a sign of quality, and I would be mad as hell if they switched to generic par fried frozen shit that you can get literally anywhere else.

I haven't had In n Out in like 20 years but back then the fries were golden and crispy. I liked them a lot.

1

So many in-n-out haters.

3

All the comments about the burger sauce on the fries acting like they've never heard of using thousand island dressing as fry sauce. Mayo, ketchup, relish (preferably dill). I don't know why In-n-Out calls that animal style though... I've only ever known animal style to mean dipped in mustard and fried so it gets a crunchy shell. Not "absolutely drenched in sauce."

And speaking as moderator: I'm not sure I want to keep fast food posts up here, but I also like being fair to the fact Lemmy is small and we don't want to get all up our own butts like the Reddit sub. What does the community itself think?

I think it's food porn, and In n Out is sexy as fuck

1

Not really feeling it to be honest.

3

I like their burgers but the fries are total dog shit

2

Those poor fries. 🥺

2

Nothing of value was lost, those fries are so nasty to begin with. In-n-out has the absolute worst fries.

2

Tried it recently, garbage tier food. Doesn't belong in this sub.

2

These burgers are shit.

2

The fries don't look very appetizing either...

- The fries are the worst. They put no seasoning on them and they are never crispy. I don't get how the place is so popular. I want to like them, because they have great prices, and give fairer wages to employees than almost all other fast food places, but it's just not very good.
  
  They seem to be doing fine without me, though. I work across the parking lot from one, and it is packed for every single hour they are open.

Sorry OP, but this looks sad and horrid.

2

I hate to agree with a vegan but in this case they are correct

1
- What's your beef with vegans?
  
  2

Not trying to yuck your yum, but...yuck. Is that thousand island on undercooked fries?

1

I dunno what it is, but their fries (animal style with Chiles, or plain) seem to really upset my guts, consistently. I suspect it's their oil, but so far as I know, it's just regular peanut oil..

1

Sunflower Oil

Five Guys is the peanut oil place

5
They are the lowest quality fries I've ever had, with or without salad dressing to cover it up

5

Overpriced and underwhelming.

Gross. In and out is horrible, especially the card board fries

Whataburger or gtfo

lol, those are fighting worlds for the Cali crowd. You aren’t wrong though.

The words of someone who has never tried Culver's, clearly.
