Like most local chains, it’s the intangible qualities that define them. Just like In-n-Out trades on the carefree, golden era of California that never was, Whataburger embodies the overhyped cattleshit on which Texas was founded.

Lifelong Texan here (thanks for not pulling out, Dad) the burgers are nothing special (i see pitchforks on the horizon) unless you’re drunk at 3am, in which case i suppose they taste alright, but under that circumstance anything will taste alright.  Their breakfast options are 100% ratshit though.
