I have friends from California who are absolutely mystified by my 
insistance that I can get a better meal at Whataburger without standing in 
line.  It's all nostalgia.  In-n-Out is OK, but just OK.  It's just a 
frigging burger.  At Whataburger, at least I can get a bigger, fresher-
tasting burger with jalapenos.  My guess is the newness will wear off just 
like the Krispy Kreme others mentioned.  There is one of those a couple of 
miles from my house.  When they first opened, lines were around the block 
constantly.  Now, you can drive up with no waiting any time of the day.
