Bueno over Oklahoma invalidates the list.

Damn straight.
I like whataburger, but it's just a better McDondalds.
Also, as a California resident, Raising Canes rocks.

In N Out has garbage tier fries.

Bullshit study. Looking for that tiny print somewhere saying "study brought to you by In and Out Burger."
In and Out is nothing special. Whataburger isn't the king, but it's better than In and Out. California knows what's up with Canes though, well done.

The people who would go to in n out in Texas WOULD be the people who used fucking check-ins, since it's a "novelty"
Those McDonald's on there is making me really sad though

Basically these are fast food places people want to tell their friends they are at. I "checked in" when I went to In-N-Out in Texas because there aren't too many of them in Texas, and there aren't any at all in Houston ( But they are building some soon ). Whataburgers are everywhere in Texas and not worth sharing when I go there so I'm not going to check in. Chick Fil A is a different animal. Almost everyone likes Chick Fil A and you can make many of your friends jealous if they see you're there, which is why CFA dominates the US map in this category.

No, WE DONT, I bet you over 95% of californians aren't even aware of existence the chain. There are only 8 locations in the whole state, all in Los Angeles!
I LIVE in LA and I didn't even know it was in CA.
Honestly the thread should be closed since this is just clickbait bullshit.
No it doesn't Bueno is the only religion we're allowed to practice outside of Christianity in Oklahoma.
You need to seek professional help.

Yet In-N-Out lost in their own "backyard" of California, lol.
Where's your god now?

Definitely wrong on this. Bueno actually has salsa and mexican food that makes sense (no doritos or fried chicken shell tacos)
They both have their place but Bueno is better.
What a ridiculous way to set up the "study". Let's divide by the number of locations to determine popularity as clearly more locations = bad and fewer = good.
So 200 people liking 2 locations is better than 400,000 liking 4,100 locations using this metric. I guess Bizarro is running the data analysis for Business Insider.

Bullshit study
It simply looked at the average number of visits per location and used that to determine the most popular restaurants. That makes no sense whatsoever. The "study" is a joke and in no way scientific.
That means a hugely popular chain like Whataburger (as evidenced by the fact that it has 19x more locations in TX than In-N-Out) gets penalized for having locations in less populated areas. So supply and demand dictated that Whataburger has 669 restaurants in TX and In-N-Out has 35 but the latter is deemed more "popular".

Yeah, that caught my attention as well. But apparently the study was partially done by FourSquare and it's not 2013 anymore, that means pretty much diddly-squat.

Bell has never been mexican food, why do people bring this up?
yes I realize I compared them first!

Go eat one while drunk and tell me it isn't better
Good fried chicken but not as good as Chicken Express
Its because that one Popeye's gets a lot of visits so its now the most popular chain in the whole state because of one location.
The study is crap and the article is nothing but clickbait.
Bueno is terrible. I'd rather pour my dog's Alpo into a hard shell and eat that instead of Bueno.

Business Insider's way of using stats has made them a milkshake duck's defense force that's dying on a hill.

I knew this was some sort of bullshit. There's gotta be like 4 In-n-Outs in all of Texas.

All I have learned today is that on top of Californians not knowing how to make a hamburger, Foursquare and Business Insider don't know how math works.

This.
There are quite a few Chik fil as in NYC. They opened pretty recently.

In N Out's popularity proves that Californians greatly overrate their mediocre food. They're solid burgers but there's really nothing else notable about them. Whataburger's burgers are better but then they also have awesome breakfast, chicken sandwiches and tenders, and the best fish sandwich I've had at a fast food joint. It's no contest which is better.

I have been to the US quite many times and lived a year in Texas.
Never had Chic fil a, have i missed out or what? Seems it's very popular.
Have had Whataburger (was ok, too much mustard on the burger for my liking) and In n Out, was great, loved the bun, sauce and the fresh veggies.

Its good but the small is like 400-500 calories like all the others so I don't get it like ever.

Also this make no sense because In n Out is so thoroughly mediocre

This would be a conversation worth having if Taco Cabana didn't shit on both from a high mountain top.

Give me any of these in Colorado please- Chik-Fil-A is overrated, but I feel surrounded by people who think its the best thing on the face of the earth. I miss In-N-Out. The only reason I didnt finish it the last time I was in CA was a ridiculous hangover.
