the killer killer conversion piece is convincing me that in n out this way is still "in n out". I love in n out because it's fresh and good. Sending it via mail could really ruin that. Would it even be edible? If so,I don't care about price. Prove to me it still rocks.

Agreed - I think the construction of a double double animal style is not optimal for eating outside of a ~30 minute window after it's been produced. Even the drive home can be enough to make thing start to get soggy. It seems like the way to do this properly would require deconstructing the burger and emulating the special sauce so that when you got it you could warm it up in pieces and rebuild it. I may have to try this before I head back to NYC.

I think you can get the sauce in those little plastic bags, like ketchup.

People always ask what you would do with "FU Money". Simple: I'd buy In N Out and bring it everywhere while still maintaining the freshness+quality of work. If they didn't go easily, I'd just perform a hostile takeover or spend whatever it takes to "clone it".
