How could he No? 25 years for a worthless degree that does not include anY business knowledge 101

Reason and I am only taking an educated guess - The lines are very long even with multiple cash registers open. Menu for those in lines is just SUPER SIMPLE
A Fraction of a Mc D's and other fast food joints but I admit there are a slew of such joints I have not been inside

There is NO Hint of any other options - Not a clue and if you look at their website THEY do not make it real easy to spot

So line moves quickly EXCEPT for One day this week when in TEXAS all sites were closed because the Buns did not meet corporate standards.

The funniest thing about America is that you don't have tax on your price labels so you have no idea how much shit is going to cost.

McDonald's was forced to launch the secret menu to hide at least some of their stock from McWalter.

Notice no mention of such menu - In the stores NO Mention of any other choices!

So if one digs a bit you get this
http://www.in-n-out.com/menu/not-so-secret-menu.aspx

To see the details of what you get that is different you have to look at the Java script of each burger YET that still does not lead to the special Fries your way WELL My way anyway - and Yes if one looks up Secret menu one discovers lots of other options

Because he said he does? Guess you cannot even see the photoshop which he currently Almost admits2

It's just one more shtick - Expect him to soon post he is buying a 757 and expect him to put himself in the drivers seat

He posted a picture of it with him sitting in it. Also, he recently came into a lot of money so it makes sense he would buy a nice car with some of it.

Literally says there is no secret menu on that web page, it's just how some customers like their food prepared.

@previous (H)
Me I wood think many a customer who has no clue such as I had no clue I could get my Fries with less salt and more crispy - Later when looking to see if I could invest in that chain did I discover one could

And as to how one wants it prepared? Good luck getting McD's to grill onions or prepare a shake that is not on the menu Even the link I gave for the secret menu does not EVEN hint of another type of Shake

Cannot invest as it's totally family owned

That is not a “secret”! That is a fast food restaurant agreeing to do something for their customer’s taste and preferences! There is no “secret menu”!

To 1 MILLION or 5 or 10 Million customers they have no clue

Yet with you taking 25+ years to get your worthless Masters degree you do not have the ability to read simple English which Mark Twain wood approve

http://www.in-n-out.com/menu/not-so-secret-menu.aspx

Thing is there is a far more detailed special menu you have to look for in order to find that added Shake Flavor and so many other ways to order

That wood slow the flow in lines so for business reasons me thinks They just keep it simple

Will admit the only thing you learned about business making Hot Dogs in China was to use Real Dog meat with that special Potty OIL

It's not really a secret menu. But when you walk in and scream EXTRA CRISPY CHICKY CHICKY you get a chicken big mac, fillet-o-chicken, some nuggets, etc to calm you down until the police get there.
