I liked their burgers quite a bit as a teenager. That's a tragedy is they have changed. I dont care much for crinkle cut fries from there, Culvers, or anywhere. Tastes like cafeteria food to me. [Reply]

I was in St. Louis because I'm a moron, with my wife, and we tried the white castle there because I watched the Harold and Kumar go to White Castle movies and because I heard it was great.
Literally terrible, the sliders at chilis are better, I have no idea why people would like them. Maybe I just got a bad bunch, but they were basically inedible. [Reply]

Nostalgia definitely plays a part. Growing up we’d go down a few times a year and we’d always stop at Whataburger. It was our thing. We’d talk more about visiting Whataburger than we would about visiting grandma. Rationally, I know I oversell it in my head because I associate so much with good memories, but I don’t care, still excited.
In and Out, with which I have no connection from my youth, was incredibly disappointing when I had it for the first time and have no desire to ever have it again. [Reply]

Hard and soft-serve icecreams are pretty good. [Reply]

Five Guys is 5 dollars more and 10 times better.
Five Guys and Whataburger aren’t really competitors though. One is fast food and the other is fast casual. Five Guys competes against Smashburger and Shake Shack. It’s like comparing Taco Bell to Chipotle. [Reply]

In n Out is nothing special. It's consistently cooked well and above average and uses good ingredients but it won't blow you away and the fries are pretty worthless.
