"Do you have any broken cookies?" - TheRob, on 10/12/2007, -1/+65I work at In-N-Out and we can no longer serve anything bigger than a 6x6. This is due to serving the best quality.
oh and i am now required to say that anything said in this post does not reflect In-N-Out Burger or anyone working for In-N-Out Burger.
(had to put that in so i don't get in trouble) - praisethelard, on 06/06/2008, -1/+58The best quality is 100 patties and 100 slices of cheese in my stomach, and damnit, you'll make it for me!!
- dhuck, on 10/12/2007, -1/+44you: could i get a bread and mayo sandwich?
counter guy: wtf?
you: it's for a duck - jhnewt, on 10/12/2007, -0/+43When I go to McDonald's I always like to order "the spaghetti basket". Be sure to point at the menu when you ask for it.
- UncleCrapper, on 10/12/2007, -1/+42Sort of stupid to insist that Subway has a "secret" pizza sub when they make your sub to order. Christ, you could order a bread and mayonaise sandwich and they wouldn't care.
- praisethelard, on 06/06/2008, -0/+39My friend ordered a 10x10 once...he threw up about an hour later.
- theragu40, on 10/12/2007, -0/+37Oh man, I'll second the vote for the Arch Deluxe. I totally forgot about that! What a great burger that was! Here's one they don't have though...has anyone else ever ordered a black mac? You can get a Big Mac for a dollar by ordering a double cheeseburger and asking for mac sauce and lettuce on it. All it's missing is the middle bun.
- Ryetronics, on 10/12/2007, -2/+36I wish they had the Arch Deluxe from McDonalds on there. Damn that was a tasty burger.
- SpringDog, on 10/12/2007, -0/+32The moral of this story: ask and you shall receive! I wonder how many other places there are that are willing to do whatever the customer asks?
Consumers, throw off the shackles of the menu handed down to us by "The Man," the secret menu revolution is at hand! - r0ck3tm4nn, on 10/12/2007, -0/+28Article is dead on about Starbucks. I like their chai but frankly it's way too weak, so I ask for a venti with 12-13 pumps of chai syrup (normally 6-7 pumps) and they do it without question. Of course, they DO give me a weird "are you sure?" look but, damnit I want strong chai.
- dasluvaluva, on 10/12/2007, -6/+32That's because he ate some pubes in between the 4th and 5th patty
- jerryparid, on 10/12/2007, -1/+27Could I have a pizza sub along with some broken cookies?
- signal15, on 10/12/2007, -1/+26>Yeah god forbid you lose your job making burgers...
The average pay for a manager of an In and Out is in the high 80's to low 90's. - doctechnical, on 10/12/2007, -3/+27It's not on the menu, but at some Taco Bells (particularly in the NYC area) you can get Nachos and Rat, Rat Gordita, Double Rat Taco, and Fiesta Potato Cheesey Rat Surprise.
Be sure to ask for extra "raisins" on your nachos - they'll know what you mean! - Yashar, on 10/12/2007, -0/+22In-n-out has the best items hidden, the animal style burger and fries. Oh and they mention how you can get your burgers bigger than 4 patties.
Try 100..
http://www.andreaharner.com/archives/Halloween2004%20086b.jpg - LittleDanzig, on 10/12/2007, -1/+20This will undoubtedly gross most of you out, but for my fellow afficianados of Deep South-style food, it's worth noting that most Popeye's Chicken will sell you breaded chicken livers if you ask. You usually have to wait 8-10 minutes for them to be prepared, but it's REALLY worth it if you're a fan of the stuff, the breading is real good and it's all the livery goodness that a fast food customer could ask for.
- Mexrocker, on 10/12/2007, -0/+18@cawpin
the boxes say 1/10, not 1/8.
I hate my job :(
lol - friedcalamari, on 10/12/2007, -0/+16“oh and i am now required to say that anything said in this post does not reflect In-N-Out Burger or anyone working for In-N-Out Burger.”
There is a flaw in your statement. Lawyers have been dispatched. - TheBarge, on 10/12/2007, -0/+16Arby's French Dip is a secret?
http://www.arbys.com/menu/
Click on "Arby's Roast Beef Sandwiches & Melts" and it's listed right there. That's not really a big secret. That's what my wife orders when we rarely go to Arby's. Other than that, cool article. - Urusai, on 10/12/2007, -0/+15Here's a secret: many places will serve you a cup of ice for 10-15 cents even if it's not on the menu. Ask for the "cup of ice".
- strabes, on 10/12/2007, -1/+16I used to know somebody that would actually make bread and mayonaise sanwiches.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+15KFC around here advertizes "liver and gizzards tuesday"
- conman16x, on 10/12/2007, -0/+15"I'll have the catfish filet with mashed potatoes and a Miller Lite."
- sephiroth965, on 10/12/2007, -1/+16@aristotle1990
Why would you let someone else throw up in your mouth? That' disgusting. - DrGonzo1184, on 10/12/2007, -2/+17I think I just threw up a little.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -3/+18In-N-Out secret menu item: grilled cheese... CMON! Why not adding BACON!?
- Gir53457, on 10/12/2007, -2/+16Problem is, often the cashiers cannot speak English much beyond the main menu items in the Bay Area.
- dunezone, on 10/12/2007, -1/+14This is true, back in 2003 when I was working at Arbys over the summer during highschool, they had just finished selling a fish sandwich, even though we still had some in the freezer, when someone asked we would offer them the sandwich if we had any in the freezer even though it was not on the menu.
- spookyttws, on 10/12/2007, -0/+13Am I the only one who noticed that a lot of the secret items aren't secret in the slightest bit. i.e. Arby's 'secret' French dip thats currently on promotion 2 for $2.22?
Edit: thebarge got to it before I did. - rawM3TAL, on 10/12/2007, -1/+14The Jamba Juice ones are amazing. Try the White Gummy bear if you try any of them.
It was my little "secret" for a while.
;] - Blizzardman, on 10/12/2007, -0/+12Can anyone describe some of the Jamba Juice ones? Do they actually blend in gummie bears or is it just flavoring?
- Skurt, on 10/12/2007, -1/+13Not for sure, but I'd say the hidden items are not on the menu so that the fast food joints don't have to disclose the fat/calorie content of these items. That way Subway, Mickey D's can claim a total average fat = x amount etc., etc. or In-n-Out can claim their highest fat content item = x amount instead of a 100x100 stack on the menu.
just thinking... - kenz0r, on 10/12/2007, -2/+14Best quality? How does that work?! It's just like ordering 25 6x6's without the bread and stacked on top of eachother. What a stupid policy.
- octoquake, on 10/12/2007, -0/+12i work at subway and the pizza sub is just pepperoni and marinara sauce.
no big deal.
as for broken cookies...we just eat them. why leave them in the front for people to order or even be given? - Skas, on 10/12/2007, -1/+12@DrGonzo
Best fast food burger you'll ever have - xxCBxx, on 10/12/2007, -1/+12What are the chances of the employee actually knowing the "secret menu" items? About 95% of the fast food workers in my area (central California) barely speak English and have a hard enough time getting regular menu items right.
- merreborn, on 10/12/2007, -0/+10I put in a year at a pizza hut, and never once saw or heard of anyone tampering with food. We had some really terrible customers, but we never screwed with their pizzas.
- DrGonzo1184, on 10/12/2007, -2/+12Next time I goto the west coast I definitely have to goto an In-N-Out Burger... sounds like some damn good food (well, at least good if I am intoxicated).
- airwalk, on 10/12/2007, -1/+10Arby's still does that. They had a club sandwich over the summer I regularly ordered. When it went off the menu, they still sold it to me until they ran out of them.
- NuclearBunny, on 10/12/2007, -0/+9Ah yes... Makes me hark back to my college days.
Mayonaise and Bac-O-Bits sandwiches.
yumm - Ductapemaster, on 10/12/2007, -0/+9^^ Wow, I guess nobody here listens to Mitch Hedberg...
- sergeantmudd, on 10/12/2007, -3/+12@strabes
"I used to know somebody that would actually make bread and mayonaise sanwiches."
I know hundreds of people like that. They are called French people. - Karl77, on 10/12/2007, -0/+9So one of those Egg Council creeps got to you too, huh?
- lengau, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8"I can be boring! Watch.
What a nice shade of grey.
Let's go and get some white bread with mayonnaise.
Then we can watch golf on television."
--Urgo ( http://www.gateworld.net/sg1/s3/316.shtml ) - blankartist, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8Can In-N-Out please come to Canada? I don't know whether to drink their milkshakes, or just pour them all over my body and moan like When Harry Met Sally (they're THAT good).
- DArangio, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8As a Starbucks employee for a year and a half here's a few examples from our "secret menu":
Strawberry Lemonade Frapp - almost nobody knows this one, but it's in the system.
Other combos, such as:
-Toffee Nut Mocha
-Raspberry Mocha
-Raspberry White Mocha
-Hazelnut green tea lattes
-Chai latte with a shot of espresso
Other tips:
-Starbucks french vanilla is just vanilla and hazelnut.
-If you order an almond skim extra almond latte (and people do), you're going to get laughed at. We mark it (vertically down the cup) as A N xA L.
-French toast bagel heated with maple syrup and butter - 10x better.
-Some stores, if you ask, give you a free cup of coffee with the purchase of a bag of beans.
-You get a free bag of beans with any coffee maker.
-Any latte can be made as an iced drink or frap, even if it's not on the menu.
-Buy a french press, it makes the best cup of coffee and is the cheapest machine to buy.
-If you want decaf, go someplace else. Our decaf has about the same caffeine content as a cup of coffee from anywhere else.
Things we don't offer even if you ask, but we do ourselves:
-Whipped Cream made with ANY of the syrups we carry, instead of vanilla. Espresso whipped cream is amazing.
-"Pancakes" - Madelines in the oven, topped with maple and whipped cream.
-If we're REALLY bored, we can actually make our own butter. My supervisor taught me this, and we've made everything from regular to cinnamon sugar or green tea butter. It's really, really good.
No matter what you order, nobody will find it strange. I'll regularly make a strange, undrinkable concoction that some customer swears by.
I can't really think of much else at the moment, but you name it, we've tried it. - hipnerd, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8Nothing beats the In-n-Out Secret Menu: http://www.badmouth.net/in-n-outs-secret-menu/
- IllBeBack, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8FTA:
"Popeye's: mullenite suggests ordering the "Naked Chicken," which is chicken with no breading. Sounds very Atkins."
This is no secret. The naked chicken and chicken strips are on the menu here at all of my local Popeyes stores...
The secret is that if you just eat the chicken (whether it have the crunchy coating or not), it's still pretty good on a high-fat/protein diet. The killers are the sides - that's where the big-time carbs are. I lost 30 pounds on a mostly fried chicken diet a few years ago. It also lowered my cholesterol and blood pressure, so as you can guess I am of the opinion that the low-fat/high carb diet people are completely full of *****. - strabes, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8They do serve it. You just have to ask for it.
