But I was expecting full Bible verses on my wrapper, not just the chapter and verse number! For shame. The In-N-Out burger was good.

I'll make sure I finally get there next time I'm in CA. Must admit I find it hard to imagine a burger place will ever take my breath away with its culinary prowess; it is, after all, still a burger. And there are some pubs in the UK that do fantastic home made burgers. Had one yesterday in fact. (The Lynmore in Sharpenhoe, highly recommended). One of the great things about hype is that even those who don't get so excited by a product will still try it, just to see if it was worth the hype (although I'm one of the few not planning to see Avatar, and suspect it would score lower with me than Shawshank Redemption, which like you I found good, but not brilliant).

It's pretty good, but you're eating 90% hype. Think of it this way: An In-N-Out is to burgers what a Mac is to personal computers or the Shawshank Redemption is to films. It unquestionably has its merits, but it's not nearly as good as it's made out to be by people who think it's cool to say it's the best thing ever. You’re not missing much – honestly.

They are that good. My brother was so impressed he asked if he could set up a franchise in the UK, but alas, In-n-Out obviously think us Brits are undeserving of such a fine burger. Yep.

I last ate an In-n-Out burger thirteen years ago, but the very thought of it has me salivating now. Ray I can only say that when you do eat there, you will absolutely understand.
