Nope. I'm guessing they're more profitable in those cities.

That has nothing to do with it and while I’ve never had stores in Oakland I’ve had stores in those other areas and Oakland would be more profitable than Orange, Anaheim and Tustin.  Taylor this is exactly what the press release said.  It’s fucking awful where the store is.

Just looked at the Yelp reviews. There are plenty of people complaining about their cars getting broken into.

Man we were told a story the other day that was heart wrenching. It’s awful there.

Someone ordered the fries?

 

 

 

 

Somewhere, @Lou smiled at that. 

[Taylor]

I ordered my INO fries light well the other day, and they came out soggy and undercooked.

[CaliAngel]

I'm so sick of people complaining about In N Out fries. It's like they miss the entire point, and don't seem to grasp the mentality of In N Out. 

They're as real a fry as you can get at a fast food joint, period. And making fresh fries at home is a pain in the ass. 

If someone doesn't like In N Outs fries, it just means they don't like real fries.

Which is fine, if you want overprocessed super crispy not real french fries that turn to garbage 5 minutes after they get cold, go somewhere else. I like those too from time to time, but you can get those anywhere. Complaining about real fresh fries from a place that makes real fresh food in every other aspect is just absurd. 

I love In N Out fries, they're perfect.

Five Guys makes their fries the same exact way INO does, and their fries are superior. Of course they cost like 2-3x as much.

Yeah, I don't know about this pole.  I do like their Ice Cream Cakes though.  But most of the locations I knew of closed down.

How the F is Baskin Robbins fast food?

yeah, i wouldn't have guessed this in a million shots. i wouldn't consider BR a fastfood place by any criteria. 

but then again, i suppose i should support the home team since they started in glendale. 

[katie]

Every Baskin Robbins I know of has closed. This article is BS. 

[Jason]

I still have a Baskin Robbins near where I live. I go there about twice a year. 

[CaliAngel]

Every Baskin Robbins I've driven by for the past 2 decades has been empty. I can get a pint of Kroger rocky road for $1.50.

I would rather have Dairy Queen if I go out for ice cream/soft serve. I honestly don't know how they've stayed in business.

Blizzard for DQ!

[Tank]

there's a BR still open in glendale. in fact, i think we have two.

i go about once every two years. 

[Blarg]

There is a Baskin Robbins and a Cold Stone in San Dimas. We drive to the Montclair Hendel's location if we are craving ice cream. 

[katie]

Handel’s is bomb. We have a bunch of those nearby.

Maybe 6 or 7. I don’t eat a lot of fast food.

I remember my dad had this album

[Blarg]

My Dad had this album.

Herb Alpert was a Jewish guy from Boyle heights and his band were studio session musicians, none of which were from south of the border. Even the woman on the cover is a white girl from Seattle.

the story on the photo is that they had to use shaving cream because the whipped cream kept running/dripping. also, the girl was about 8 months pregnant when this was shot.
