...mentioned before in these God-Company threads: In-N-Out Burger.

They also sneak Bible verses onto their napkins. You have to be looking pretty hard to find them.

On the other hand, In-N-Out is one of the most progressive businesses in California. They are family-owned, and have refused millions of dollars to franchise their chain nationally. The family owners want to retain control of their quality and liberal employment policies.

How good is their food? So good that they got a rave review from the author of "Fast Food Nation," who's certainly no fan of the industry. Watch the DVD of "Super Size Me" and you'll catch the review in the Special Features, when Morgan Spurlock interviews the author.

Everything is made fresh as it's ordered. This is easy to prove, since the employees work behind glass walls and you watch them preparing your Double-Double, fries and milkshake.

As for employment, there's always a waiting list of people wanting to work there, even at the lowest level. In-N-Out pays good wages, provides benefits, and promotes from within strictly on merit.

I can put up with a few Bible verses in exchange for that, I think.
