Since I read this thread I had gone to in n out twice and ordered protein style - I did not know protein style was available at in n out until I read it here. I also ordered fries well done both times. The fries are great either way - regular - taste very fresh, or well done - very crunchy. Prior to this thread, the last time I had one was 2 years ago. I am generally not a fast food person. I am glad I am reminded of in n out. :p

You can get a "protein style" burger anywhere that serves lettuce with their burgers. My sister often gets one that way at Red Robin. I, on the other hand, get mine "upside down," that is, with the top bun half on the bottom and the bottom half on the top. Why?? Cause I don't eat the half which is on the top half of the burger, so I want the best half on the bottom!

Is it too difficult to just turn it upside down? ;)

Ok, now that's just CRAZY!!! Crying as she ate her burger? I sure as heck hope it was the onions because In and Out isn't so great anyone should cry about them. Don't get me wrong, they're good burgers but crying???

I like I&O well enough but I'm sure as heck not going out of my way to get one. Their fries are so so. Not my style, I guess. But everyone's tastes are different and that's what makes the world go 'round.[/QUOTE

I agree 100%. I have eaten at many In-N-Outs for over 25 years. They are good as far as a fast food joint is but they are still just fast food. I have eaten at many restaurants that have much better burgers and fries.

Not "too difficult," but too messy! You see, I only eat half the bun, so if I turned it upside down, the top (open part) would be the dressing, and it would be sloppy. Besides, as I mentioned, the usual top is softer than the bottom, and sometimes is seeded, etc., so I'd like to retain that. Getting a burger "upside down" does that.
(I *do* use a piece of the other half of the burger to hold the meat patty on, mving it away from me as I eat the sandwich)

Thanks for the details! :hysterical:

Next time I go to In and Out (rare, but I'm now coincidentally considering it for sometime soon...) I'll ask for it upside down as well. I like the taste right-side up but haven't tried upside-down...perhaps it tastes better, too! (Then again, I order it with just fried mustard and onions without the "special sauce" - with ketchup (that I don't order) it's 80 calories for just the sauce... see http://www.in-n-out.com/pdf/nutrition_2010.pdf).
