In and Out Burgers, Great Place for Low Carbers

This week has been very hectic with work and weird hours. Of course this leads to having to grab a quick bite to eat which means eating fast food. One place that I have been regularly visiting is In and Out Burgers. Being on a low carb diet, In and Out has a burger that is perfect for me...a double double, protein style, with pickles and raw onion. Protein style means that instead of a bun, the burger is wrapped with lettuce. I found out that they have been doing this for over 20 years! That is way too cool. I love their burgers! The burgers are simple with basic fixings of lettuce tomato and sauce. If you want onions, grilled onions, pickles, ketchup, or mustard, just ask them to add it on.

In and Out uses only the freshest ingredients. Fresh, hand leafed lettuce, juicy tomatos, fresh ground beef, and their special sauce. These guys don't even own a microwave. For you non low carb eaters, their hamburger buns are made with old fashioned sponge dough, the fries are freshly made with no beef talow or other flavorings, and the milk shakes are made with real milk.

The menu at In and Out is rather basic: Hamburger, cheeseburger, double double (two patties and two slices of cheese), fries, soft drinks, milk shakes. However, they do have a secret menu. Their secret menu is as follows:

Protein Style - As noted earlier, it is the burger without the bun and it is wrapped up with lettuce instead.

Animal Style - The burger with mustard, grilled onions, pickles and extra sauce.

Wish Burger/Veggie Burger - A burger for you vegetarians out there - no meat, no cheese with all the fixings.

Flying Dutchman - The burger with two patties and two slices of cheese with no fixings. Basically, a plain double double.

Grilled Cheese - A cheeseburger without the meat.

Double Meat - a Double Double without the cheese.

Fries Well Done - Extra crispy fries.

Fries Light - Opposite of Fries Well Done. Fries more on the raw side.

Fries Animal Style - Fries with cheese, grilled onions, and sauce.

3 by 3 - Three patties, three slices of cheese. They basically can do any combination with the first number being the number of patties and the second number being the number of slices of cheese. If you want 5 patties and 7 slices of cheese, then you would order a 5 by 7.

Neopolitan Shake - Chocolate, strawberry, and vanilla shakes blended together.

Whenever I want to eat a burger, I always think about In and Out first. Fresh, tasty, and can be customized the way you like it. The funny thing is that I've eaten at In and Out for 4 straight days for lunch and I never grow tired of it.

I heard that they have changed their bumper sticker that you can buy from a previous design due to some creative and nasty minds who altered the stickers so it read In and Out urge. The first time I saw the altered bumper sticker, I just had to laugh.

Well, now I'm craving for an In and Out urg...I mean an In and Out burger!
