Okay All we have a problem.

Apparently CCDC THINKS that In and Out is a HAIR (I emphasize HAIR) better than WHATABURGER.

WELL...OF ALL THE SLIGHTS ON THIS FORUM and THE COVID-19 INFO THREAD.

IN and OUT has the WORST french fries in the HISTORY of French Fries...paper thin, taste like carboard...horrible...I don't even think they are potatoes...I mean coming from California they are probably Cauliflower Poseur french fries. AND you can't order your IN and Out how you like it! Its a double double or nothing. Man that is communist, socialist french fries for the proletariate...and they taste like it too. Freaking Soylent Green french fries.

HOWEVER COMMA, a WHATABURGER can be order over 1000 different ways, INCLUDING your way. So, like I said a Double WHATABURGER with two slices of cheese...WHATASIZE with a Coke to drink. And if your feeling frisky, add some Jalapeños ala Mike Miller Style.

CCDC, I'm ashamed of you...Texas is ashamed of you and your moving here? You have already started off on the wrong foot and I am going to make you a shirt that says "In in Out is a hair BETTER than WHATABURGER...YEAH I SAID IT!" and we shall see how long you last in Texas. In the mean time:

The DOUBLE MEAT WHATABUGER vs.

No sir.

PS: I am so glad to see ZB is alive and well. I was getting worried.

I believe it ain't the first time I've disappointed a Texan and I guarantee you it if I move there it won't be the last.
As far as a bigger, Yes I know Texans have a belief that bigger is better at the molecular level. I think it's in your mothers milk.
I liked the Whataburger. A liked the In&out burger. Didn't know they were fighting words..Water bottles at dawn???
Based on the hurt I've caused you there is only one solution.
I need to test which is best again, I clearly need to eat both at the same time. Please have the defibrillator ready.

But I never discussed fries. I am Chicago Greek restaurant steak fry person and anything else is child's play. Big,wide,fat and can hold a ton of ketchup, then the crinkle cut from Portillos. Or, Belgium fries in Belgium or the Netherlands. Now that's a whole another level.

As far as Kuma's it is great. The original Lincoln park location is worth the trip. The Slayer burger is my favorite. Grass fed beef from the Midwest is out of this world.

As far as the t-shirt. I will totally wear it. Please don't forget the missing letter.

Yup, governor Baker did a tremendous job, no panic, no yammering, no running the state like Germany in 1933, he's been calm, cool and collected at all times.

The numbers have dropped like a stone, just keep slowly reopening the state and monitoring the numbers and if they start to go the other way, I have all the confidence in the world he'll make the right decisions.

I have zero plans on leaving the state for a long, long time, so as long as he keeps pushing all the right buttons, I'm good.

OZ,

Now those burgers look good! Except the one with Pineapple on it...Pineapple? That has got to be an Australia thing.

ZB,

Italian beef...smack! We got a joint down here and down the street from our shop called WiseGuys and the owner is Chicago born and bread. Hella Italian beef sangwhich they got...dipped with the spicy peppers. They also sell a Gambino which is an Italian sausage with meatball sang which.

CCDC,

Your forgiven and I won't force you to wear the shirt because you might get shot. Even though you didn't discuss fries (because you know they are awful) you have to include them in the whole package of the eating experience. I don't get take out just for the burger and then go somewhere else for the fries. Nah, man its the whole package and to WHATASIZE is to live. But, yes Greek fries are the bomb and I like 'em thick.

Austin has gone to Stage Four lockdown for the current outbreaks of COVID. Texas as a whole has hit a new daily record of admittance for the virus. My daughter was asked to work at the San Marcos Panera Bread for time and a half. She declined since San Marcos is on lockdown for COVID and infections have spiked. Its going to be a long hot summer.

I knew when Abbott opened the beaches that Texas would spike with new cases...
California and Florida...both having large coastal beaches now open to the public...

Houston's mayor is talking about a shutdown now...
I hope he does ad Galveston follows suit...
too many people...too many cooties...

Yeah I've never been a pineapple on burger fan myself, but they are a thing with some people. I usually have the Simply Grilld Burger and Grilld Chips with Stone and Wood Pale Ale beer.

Ask anybody who has been to the NY Symposium over the years, the best burgers come from high-end steak houses, like the Wolenski Grill or Bryant and Cooper. I lived in Texas for 7 years, and thought Whataburger was great fast food (I remember the malts they made were awesome as well), but they are not even in the same ballpark with a top end steakhouse burger!:salute::
 
Texas is soaring in new cases today...
4,413 new cases reported today...
the highest total of any day to date...
to put that in perspective...
7 times more cases than NY today...

of the 25,000 new cases in the US today...
California...Florida and Texas contributed almost half of those (11,000)...

John...
be extra careful...

Bexar county is 3rd highest with 439 new cases today...
only behind Andersonville county (Palestine, TX)...
and...
Brazoria county (Pearland, Friendswood and Lake Jackson) which border Galveston county...

tourist season and the Grim Reaper are gonna take their toll this summer....

Mike and John, be careful! Looks like Texas opened up too soon, and isn't taking social distancing seriously. That's what NYC was like in the beginning, and look what happened here.
 
Mike,

I KNOW...gosh darnit! At the car dealership right now getting my oil changed and mask wearing is pretty thin. However, the service reps are wearing and of course I am suited up as well. I am sad because we were doing so good with keeping infections low. A friend of mine went to Gruene, TX for a take out bite a few weeks ago. NOBODY was social distancing or wearing masks...there were in there hooting and hollering AS IF nothing was goin on. Just found out that joint is closed until further notice due to COVID as of this week and the rest of the small town shops and joints are closed too...HELLO!!! Y'now summer is here and if you would payed attention and taken precautions you would not be closed at "high" season.

Just dumb.

Louis B,

"the best burgers come from high-end steak houses" Well, your honor that is reserved for rich people to say. Us minions go to Whataburger...at best I may splurge at get a " Big Juicy" at Longhorns Bar and Grill and even that is a $6 dollar burger by itself, but **** good too. If times are tough...then Wendy's it is, but even Wendy's combo's are getting into double digit pricing. Lean times...$1 Double cheeseburger from McDonalds with a $1 Coke. So, LB aristocrats eat burgers at Steak Houses...oh I'm sorry "high end" steak houses. HaHa!

I saw a show on TV once about a joint in Maine, New Hampshire, Conn...I don't remember but anyway they served steamed cheeseburgers and man they looked good! Does anyone know what I am talking about. I know it sounds crazy, but they steam them with cheese and all.

GICOP,

They live in bliss man!

What ever happened to the hot humid weather kills the virus.That's what the "experts" said.That's why that and all the other BS isn't believed by most people anymore.

Guys, I don't have the numbers but before you hit the panic button, you have to look at hospitalization and death (unfortunately). Testing positive is not preferred, but it appears (at least in Maryland where we are open and have been) that the positive uptick is not resulting in corresponding hospitalization and death. That is good news. I do and continue to believe we will see Positive (infections) increase but hopefully the current trend of lower death and hospitalization rates will continue.

I think if you continue to use good practices you will be ok. We are out and moving about in Maryland but we are wearing masks and washing hands often. It seems to be working, ie common sense in activity seems to be working.

your last paragraph looks good on paper...
agreed...that's what people should be doing...

but unfortunately it seems all the tourist are bunching up on the beach and are wearing no PPE...
no gloves...no masks...no social distancing...
it's summertime and the tourist crowds are overwhelming...

after their day at the beach they go unprotected to restaurants to eat...
again...no PPE...

transmission of the virus is inevitable without precautions...
Galveston beaches are a breeding ground for cooties...
the beaches are a major destination for tourists in the summer...
