Double-double dumb: America wants a vegetarian In-N-Out option?
Hot air ^ | SEPTEMBER 26, 2016 | ED MORRISSEY

Posted on 09/26/2016 1:37:43 PM PDT by Hojczyk

So it’s not as though In-N-Out is missing out on an untapped market. The same people who supposedly demand a vegetarian “option” begrudge the meat-eating “option” enough to take a pass. Besides, getting 24,000 signatures on this petition is a joke. They have 300 locations serving up thousands of burgers daily to people who like their product. They’re not going to get too concerned about 24,000 people signing up for a political diktat run by a group that’s half a continent away from its nearest grill.

This is the very definition of elitism, and its almost-always-present ignorance and arrogance. America doesn’t want a veggie burger at In-N-Out. A few busybodies want to shame In-N-Out (and its customers) for its success, and couldn’t care less whether they ever eat there or not.

Earlier, I mentioned the simplicity of the menu, but there is a small caveat to that. Longtime customers know that In-N-Out has a few off-menu options. The front-page image is the 4×4, a twist on the Double-Double that has four meat patties and four slices of cheese, taken right before I devoured it. That should be enough to make GFI run for the nearest Good Earth Restaurant — which, by the way, is excellent as well. One person can easily enjoy both experiences. That’s what is so great about free markets and consumer choice.

Vegetarians should be on chain gangs, picking up hamburger wrappers on the side of our roads.

If people wanted a vegan burger, the market would exist for them.

Meat eaters should be forced to work at factory farms.

The same kind of elitism that DEMANDS Christians to accept the gay lifestyle even though it is evil and goes counter to biblical teachings.

Eating lamb is justified by the utter deliciousness of the meat.

Just don’t tell my wife, that.

They should just go to Burger King. It has a veggie burger option.

I worked with a vegetarian who loved In ‘N Out. He ordered the burger without the meat. He liked the bun, lettuce, tomato, and onion.

When is Starbucks going to offer sausage and cheese kolaches for breakfast?

When is Halal Bros. going to offer bacon as an option for the wraps?
