It was kind of Wisconsin to share the ButterBurger with the rest of the country (or a good portion of it at least). While the rest of the country may love it, though, Wisconsin REALLY loves it...
In-N-Out Burger
Powerful in Cali and completely dominant in Nevada, In-N-Out has even made inroads among notoriously Whataburger-loyal Texas. Also, it seems some people in Oregon dont mind a road trip South for a Double Double Animal Style....
Whataburger
Its no surprise that Whataburger reigns supreme in Texas, dominating most of the state, with scattered areas of influence across the rest of the Southern half of the country (and a particularly dominating presence in the Florida Panhandle). Also, it seems some folks in the SE corner of Utah are engaged in some Whataburger-related border jumping....
White Castle
Harold and Kumar would undoubtedly be happy to see White Castles strong showing in New Jersey. Also, until the Colonel decides to get into the burger game, theyre looking rather formidable in Kentucky, as well as the Chicago and St. Louis areas.

But In 'n' Out remains in a class by itself. The first place I go whenenver I get to Vegas or LA is the nearest In 'n' Out. Burger Bliss.
And nothing ever tastes as good after a night of drinking than White Castle. YOu pay the price the next day, but it is worth it, IMO.

(33,688 posts)to cover a product introduction a couple of months ago. While in the Houston airport between flights I ate a a place called Bullritos that blew Chipotle into the next dimension. Apparently they're a TX only chain, at least so far. Know anything about them? DEEEE-lish!!

(25,719 posts)We've got a lot of Mexican food - all shapes and sizes. Our local fast food chain is Taco Cabana. But we've got so many cheap mom and pop places which are just as fast and better than the chains.

(32,099 posts)Most people don't announce where they are eating on social media. I'd love to see a map based on the actual overall numbers.

(32,099 posts)At least by my observations, their patrons tend to be older people and and parents who don't use social media, like Foursquare. They either don't care for it, are too busy with their kids, or they really don't want to announce to the world, "Hey! I'm over here! Nobody's home. Go rob my house!"

(43,226 posts)Of all that I've eaten, Five Guys is the best of the bunch.
A HERETIC I AM
(24,381 posts)I've seen numerous closed stores, both in NE FL and SE GA. No Culvers in Florida that I've seen and In-N-Out is so far only in the DFW area, outside their CA, AZ, NV and UT homelands.
I'm hoping In-N-Out expands into my state.

(7,350 posts)I guess they're too local.
We have Five Guys popping up all over. They're good but they give you too many fries!
