4 x 4 no spread ketchup and mustard instead with fries and 7up

Every time it's always the same: 4x4, no spread, ketchup and mustard instead, with fries and a 7up. It's been 4 long months since those beautiful words left my mouth. Sure we do have lots of amazing food here, but lets face it: no one knows how to make hamburgers like In n Out does. For those of you who have never heard of In n Out (and most likely have been locked inside your whole life), it is a burger place in California that has the most delicious hamburgers know to man.
The menu is simple:
double double - cheeseburger - hamburger - fries - drink

But the glory of In n Out is the beloved secret menu. I'm sure most of you have heard of the main ones (4x4 = four patties/four cheese, protein style = lettuce wrap instead of bun, animal style = extra sauce/onions + mustard grilled patty) but here are a few new ones that I have recently found during one of my In n Out cravings. Enjoy the delicious list you lucky Californias:

- Chopped Chilis Burger - adds some jalapeƱos to the bottom of the burger
- The Flying Dutchman = double double with no bun
- 4x6 = four meat - six cheese - this is actually the biggest hamburger they will sell now because of people trying to order 25x25
- Veggie Burger = everything except the meat and cheese --- not sure why would you go to a burger place and not get meat and cheese
- Extra toasted bun/lightly toasted bun/untoasted bun - note* this must be asked for first based on how they enter it into the register
- Fries well done/fries light well = fries are cooked more than normal for guaranteed added crispiness and heart attack
- Lemon fries = add a lemon slice to your fries
- Cheesy fries = Cheese + fries = beauty
- Rootbeer float
- Combine shakes - your choose what combo all the way up to Neapolitan shakes
- Extra syrup for your shake

This last one wins the prize for the best secret item:
- 4x6 Animal style w/ fries inside - that's a lot of artery clogging deliciousness

So did we miss any other good ones? I'm definitely going for a 4x6 w/ fries inside when I get back - followed by a long nap.

While not much comes close to that delicious burger, I think I might have found something that could make a pretty good attempt. This website is completely dedicated to cheeseburger goodness: http://www.cheeseandburger.com/. I think I found my new favorite website. I love the commentary on each burger. I'm definitely going for The Highwayman.

Later this week I will try and post about Saudi food. The food here can be very different but also really good. It's been a long time coming for the food review but there were a few things we wanted to try first before we wrote the final draft. One of them being brain. Stay posted!
