You're an hour from stuff but not actually anywhere. And you have the highest cost of living of and place.

As a Dallasonian my favs are Torchy's, Rudy's and the best - Whataburger Honey Butter Chicken Biscuit. Even served them at my wedding!!

Mmmm Rudy’s. Living in CA I keep bottles of the sauce and rub in my house. Can’t be beat.
SheaBriar
Torchy's trashy trailer park taco is my jam.

I get that all the time!! Their breakfast tacos are amazing too, especially the wrangler! Best hangover food ever.

I don't know why I have approximately 90 of these, but I do. It seemed like the cool thing to do at the time. Peer pressure is real yall
juniorman00
But they bring the food to your table.Then they have a tray with ketchup(spicy and regular), napkins and straws in case you forgot.
sillyvampire14
I stole one from Culvers and Hardees when I moved out of Iowa, so I don't think it's only a Texan thing, they just go insane
imjustlookingatpictures
The better question here would be directions to whataburger, the greatest fast food of all time.
Gregadactyl
You poor soul...
xakh
It's the thing that marks your table at one of the best damn fast food places anywhere, Whataburger. People steal them for fun.

WHATABURGER!!! They give you number tents and it's like a thing to try and put it in your purse or pocket before they take it

I did a road trip to Texas and I might do it again just to go to Buccees, I spent hours in there.

My favorite part is that you said left coast instead of west cost.

No. Not South. Whataburger is Texas. Texas is not "the south." Texas is Texas.
asa1967
I'm in Florida, we have Whataburger here. Sooo...
iwouldwalkfivehundredmiles
There are In N Out locations in other states, but it is still largely viewed as a California thing.
iwouldwalkfivehundredmiles
Yes I understand that it exists outside Texas, but it is from TX and majority of their locations are in TX. That was my point.
LearningOnImgur
I love In N Out, but Whataburger is significantly better, if anything because of the variety
ButterMyButtAndCallMeBiscuit
Their burgers taste like straight mustard but that chicken and gravy is amazing.
Cameronkip
You clearly don't know how to order In N Out correctly.
AncientPostNecromancer
At What'a'burger you can get gravey with everything, some even serve chicken fried steak

The lack of variety is precisely why in n out is so good. They do one thing and they do it really fucking well.

No joke, if you have to take a road shit they have clean private bathrooms. It's quite pleasurable.

As a Texan, I hadn't been to one until a few months ago. Those things aren't gas stations, they're mini HEBs that also sell gas.
