i felt the same way when i found out that chik-fil-a is run by fundy’s too. of course, that was much easier to deduce, since they’re closed on sundays. because it’s god’s day, and all.

i knew about the bible references for years now and yet, i never knew that they sold coffee until you wrote about it, being as it i always wash down my double doubles and fries with either coke or their awesome pink lemonade.

as for people who seem offended by it, uh why? bible verses on wrappers, big f***ing deal. the print is so small that people go there for years without noticing it. in ‘n out wouldn’t be this successful if the only people who ever ate there were bible-thumpers.

Instead of suing for $14 million for burnt coffee lip damage, take the free burgers for life deal…

Wow. I didn’t know that about In-n-Out. That’s a shame.

Perhaps I should give them a suggestion for a passage - “The body is a temple. And your food burns down the temple. Very slowly.”

Snyder is a German name, not necessarily Jewish.

Since Jews have been persecuted and fled from many different locations thru the ages, we have all sorts of last names. You know, many have changed their names to blend in. It’s more difficult these days to determine who actually has Jewish roots!

Hah! SpringstEIN might be Jewish, but SpringstEEN is not.

Just by coincidence — my hebrew name is Nahum. Was the message for me?

And if the Snyders *were* observant Jews you wouldn’t be able to get that cheeseburger at all. Or anything with bacon. There’s a Dunkin Donuts here in Brookline that won’t sell breakfast sandwiches with bacon or sausage. You can only get the egg and cheese. Maybe they need to learn about Boca sausage.
My favorite burgers are from Five Guys. Hope your lip heals soon.

Okay… so to put it in perspective I imagine walking into a burger joint and getting a wrapper with a Koran (am I supposed to spell it with a Q?) verse on it… If I knew there wasn’t anything sinister in the message I don’t think it would bother me. Sure they want you to convert. It’s the nature of religion, but that’s the great thing about living here. I can eat the burger and forget the message.
