Soon we may have an answer to the question all burger enthusiasts outside of the West have been wondering: will In-N-Out Burger finally expand to the rest of the country? Now that In-N-Out's opened up a distribution center and several locations in Texas, it's possible that nearby states could soon follow suit. According to the chain's Fort Worth economic development manager, the company is considering expanding to neighboring states.

To maintain freshness and quality, In-N-Out has long held a policy of opening new locations that are within 500 miles of its distribution center in Southern California's Baldwin Park. Now that there's a second distribution hub in Dallas, its track record of opening past locations could support expansion to more than a dozen states, including Oklahoma, Louisiana, and Arkansas. How would you feel about a new In-N-Out near you?

In-N-Out vs. Five Guys: Which Burger Team Are You On?

Regional burger chains sure have been seeing a lot of press this month.

Regional burger chains sure have been seeing a lot of press this month. It began when Consumer Reports ranked fast food burgers and shocked the nation when McDonald's came in dead last. Arriving first was West Coast favorite In-N-Out Burger, with Atlantic burger joint Five Guys Burgers & Fries trailing in a close second. But yesterday in an Esquire column, the always-outspoken burger buff Josh Ozersky countered that neither In-N-Out nor Five Guys is deserving of top titles. "Neither burger has any of the hallmarks of actual quality," he writes.

Regardless of whether one agrees with Ozersky or not, one thing's for sure: there's a fierce rivalry between In-N-Out and Five Guys that has only seemed to grow with time. Which do you prefer?

In-N-Out Burger Affirms It's Expanding — to Texas

Is In-N-Out, the cult California burger chain lauded by the likes of David Chang and Peter Meehan, finally becoming a national standby?

Is In-N-Out, the cult California burger chain lauded by the likes of David Chang and Peter Meehan, finally becoming a national standby? Well, while the hamburger chain isn't expanding to the Eastern Seaboard just yet — it has unveiled plans to open in Texas.

D Magazine first broke the news that In-N-Out would be opening its first Lone Star location in Garland, a suburb of Dallas. The Irvine, CA-based fast food chain is known for its not-so-secret basic menu and fresh, high-quality ingredients; it holds the cachet of Manhattan's famed Shake Shack, only with the efficiency of a McDonald's. Yet the family-owned business, which doesn't even accept franchisees, has been reluctant to expand beyond the West Coast. According to Carl Van Fleet, In-N-Out's Vice President of Planning and Development, the company is building a new meat facility to service its Texas locations.

Van Fleet also told Eater that while opening dates have yet to be determined, "We continue to work on a number of site opportunities in the DFW market." I'm shocked that the chain is expanding to Texas, although I think Whataburger could use some competition. What do you think of In-N-Out?

In-N-Out Burger Breakdown

In-N-Out Burger is a cult like favorite out here in the West.
by

In-N-Out Burger is a cult like favorite out here in the West. People literally flock to In-N-Out to get their grub on. I won't lie, I recently dined at In-N-Out and with a nutritional information card no where in sight, I had to fend for myself.

So you don't have to play the guessing game next time you go, here is the Breakdown:

The Double-Double with Onion has 670 calories, 41 grams of fat, 1440 mg of sodium and 39 carbs.

The Cheeseburger with Onion has 480 calories, 27 grams of fat, 1000 mg of sodium and 39 grams of carbs.

The Hamburger with Onion has 390 calories, 19 grams of fat, 650 mg of sodium and 39 grams of carbs.

The French Fries have 400 calories, 18 grams of fat, 245 mg of sodium and 54 grams of carbs. BUT they are not cooked in trans fats, so they get a major plus for that one.

The Chocolate Shake has 690 calories, 36 grams of fat, 350 mg of sodium and 83 grams of carbs.

Fit's Tip: Get it with out the "spread" and you can knock off 80 calories, 9 grams of fat but you need to add 80 mg of sodium and 2 grams of carbs.
