Isn't the tail supposed to go in the pot, too?

Alligators and hyenas eat living things alive all the time. Sure even a sweet kitty will try and eat something living.

Yep. That's life.

Sucks being lower on the food chain than a bigger, hungry animal, huh?

Ya know, I've sort of Five guys overdosed. It's a good burger and all but I need variety.

I really burned out on 5 Guys. I don't think we've been there in at least 6 months. Partly it's the diet, but also, if I ever get a hankering for a burger, it's probably not the first place I'll head.


I'm not short. I'm concentrated awesome!

I've never been to 5 Guys. I wanna try it just once, but I don't expect it to be the best burger I've ever had.

They are not the best burgers ever but for fast food burgers that are pretty good probably a notch or two above In/Out doubledouble. They do have really good fries though. But like any place, it's all in who runs the shop. The one by our house is new and the crew is really bustin' a$$ and they put out a great burger. I've heard others have had not as good experiences.

Sort of like my experience with Smashburger. I heard so many ranting on what a great burger they make so we stopped. It was horrible, a step above White castle and maybe better than McDonalds, but Wendy's does a better burget. They are low on my list.

I've never understood people's fascination for certain fast food restaurants. When In-N-Out first came here, San Diegans nearly wet themselves over the first one to open. When I finally went there, it was just another fast food burger. No big whoop... Same thing when they opened a Five Guys in the food court at the Navy Exchange. Big long lines for just another burger...

The only place around here I've found that serves burgers that are out of the ordinary is Hodads (external link) in Ocean Beach. And the big problem there is that the parking is atrocious...

I don't care for fries. At all. Unless, maybe, they're smothered in cheese and chili. I'll get them that way when I go to Tommy's. Otherwise, I always order onion rings, instead.

And, I've never understood why so many people think In 'n' Out is the bees knees. Not long ago the Las Vegas Advisor web site ran a poll asking their viewers what was the best place to go for a burger in Las Vegas. It was NOT limited to only fast food places, but the winner, by a landslide, was In 'n' Out. That dumbfounded me! Sure, it's better than McDonalds or Burger King, but the best in all of Las Vegas?!? When it comes to fast food joints, I'd go to Tommy's first before In 'n' Out. I think I'd even consider Jack In The Box's Sirloin Burger better. And, that's not even getting into all of the myriad of other Las Vegas restaurants that have burgers on the menu... :confused:

I like smashburger, but I only eat their grilled chicken. We don't eat red meat so it limits us on burger joints ;)

We have lots of mom and pop type restaurants that have really good burgers but i don't classify those as fast food burgers. I love a good burger and there are a few places we will frequent when we want a decent burger, but those are more sit down places. 5guys here makes a really decent fast food burger, phone it in, send the kid to pick it up and your done.
