You Learn Something New Every Day: Animal-Style Fries At In-N-Out

I'm originally from Southern California, so In-N-Out is the native food of my people. Whenever I go back, I slip on my scuba gear and dive into the middle of a double double. I don't ever come out. I just smother myself in its deliciousness until my caca even smells like something off of their menu.

Because I consider a serious In-N-Out-aholic, I'm a little ashamed to admit that I've never heard of fries animal-style. It's not on the menu, so you have to ask for it. Now, I've eaten a cheeseburger animal-style, but didn't even know you could get that mess on your fries. I didn't know until a reader we'll call Rachel let me in on the secret today.

Just like the burger, they top the fries with melted cheese, grilled onions and gallons of Thousand Island dressing. After staring at this picture, I don't know whether to bite at my screen or cry into a toilet. It kind of looks like something you'd find in the dumpster outside of an abortion clinic. Like something Vadge would smear her face with. I think I see something moving. That's never stopped me before, so as soon as I land back in my homeland in a few months, I will drive up to an In-N-Out and ask for my fries abortion-style.

Ha. That is just so wrong.

I have some serious questions about Thousand Island dressing. Like what is it used for and where did it come from and why is it named Thousand Island?

I am SHOCKED at you, Michael K. How did you NOT know about animal style fries? Dear lord.

They are literally the best things in the entire universe. They are so so so much better than the burgers or plain fries.

Clarisse - sorry betch. I know, I suck.

Just Jack - I used to love baked potatoes, but the only potato I get these days are my cauliflower "mashed" potatoes.

2Di4's picture

i would never, ever do that to the simple perfection that is the in n' out french fry. i often see those smiling, polite christian teens cutting potatoes while i'm sitting at the drive-through and think to myself that it's somehow wrong to even dip those fried slices of heaven's sunbeams into evil satan ketchup.

is it also wrong to admit that i have been known to lick the bottom of the carton when the fries are all gone? ok. yeah. i guess that sounds a little wrong...

do you like Carls Jr. Chili cheese fries?

JustJack's picture

M.E. Iam just going to throw this out there, No potatoes at all or just the Fries?

Oh My Lord that is some nasty looking stuff!!! How can people eat that? Of course, there are no In-and-Out burgers in my fair city so I may be missing the point!!

I wonder how In-n-Out stacks up against Canada's Harvey's (which How I Met Your Mother taught me Americans do not have). Seems like In-n-Out would be better, but as far as burgers go Harvey's is probably one of the more revered places up here. Someone shed some light!

There is a whole lingo over at In-N-Out:

Aww suga!
I'm sorry! I'll shut up about the food now.
Good luck with your diet goals. I'm trying to eat more healthy too. We'll totally exchange healthy recepies @ twitter!

Well it's not THAT bad! LOL! It's just the sodium thing. If it was a matter of having to lose weight then it would REALLY suck but it's really just a matter of things like no bacon and stuff. In the immortal words of a friend of mine:

I don't eat healthy shit! It's not good for you!

BWAH!

Lava, I wish! It has a ton of sodium in it and at my last check-up my doctor told me to lighten up on the sodium b/c my blood pressure was a little high. So no more fast food. And I don't think we have any Carl's Jr. in this part of the country, anyway. I sure as hell know we don't have In N Out!

We may have to revoke your fan status. Here's a lexicon for you:

"3-by-3" = three meat patties and three slices of cheese.

"4-by-4" = four meat patties and four slices of cheese.

"2-by-4" = two meat patties and four slices of cheese.

"Double Meat" = like a Double Double without cheese.

"3 by Meat" = three meat patties and no cheese.

"Animal Style" = the meat is cooked and fried with mustard and then pickles are added, extra spread and grilled onions are added.

"Animal Style Fries" = noted.

"Protein Style" = a burger with no bun (wrapped in lettuce).

"Flying Dutchman" = two meat patties, two slices of melted cheese and nothing else - not even a bun!

Fries "Well-Done" = extra crispy fries . . . even better than the regular!

Fries "Light" = opposite of fries well-done, more raw than most people like 'em

"Grilled Cheese" = no meat, just melted cheese, tomato, lettuce and spread on a bun.

"Veggie Burger" = burger without the patty or cheese. Sometimes called the "Wish Burger."

"Neapolitan" Shake = strawberry, vanilla and chocolate mixed together.

wait that's thousand island dressing??? no. I need more animal style. full fat ranch for me. oh yeahhh. ugh, I'm so out of it today....

The only thing I like Thousand Island on is a Reuben sammich. The Wendy's talk is making my mouth water. They used to have the best Greek pitas. God I need to get off here & make some food LOL *wiping drool*

@ Suga

Wendy's itself is pure ambrosia. I fucking love the burgers, and fries are heavely. Carl's Jr is worth a try too, but I'm a total wendy's whore.

Have you ever tried the Baconator with Ranch dressing? That right there is a little slice of heaven.

Thank god I don't eat any type of dressing cuz MK putting some french fries at 6 pm when I haven't eat anything is just cruel and it would make mego ohme and have a fest of some Tostones.
Your Plan has failed!!!

The shit the trolls write looks more like something a hound would yak up. These greasy gooey fries are pure by comparison.
I'm going to fix a lovely well-rounded meal of pizza and cheese fries. Salt, fat, sugar & chocolate are the 4 basic food groups you know! :P

This stuff looks like something a hound would yak up. How can you eat this for lunch? Doesn't it make you ill?

Sorry MK, but In N Out is beyond ew. The fries taste like cardboard, and the burgers are boo.

I'll take a 100 dollar gift card to Wendy's in a heartbeat though.
