OK, Kansas City, here’s how we get an In-N-Out

• Serious Eats
• In-N-Out’s one-day menu in Shanghai, China.

I’m not encouraging trademark violation, but let’s just say for a minute that we’ve got an enterprising young man by the name of Mr. In. And Mr. In just so happens to be good friends with another Kansas City resident, Mr. Out.

Well the two get together and, seeing how many burger chains the market currently supports, decide that KC could probably get behind one more burger stand. So Out-&-In Burgers (Mr. Out has put in more of the capital) gets ready to open in the Chiefs’ colors of red and gold.

The only problem is that In-N-Out Burgers could easily see this as infringement and be compelled, as they recently were in Shanghai, to open a one-day pop-up shop to show Kansas City what true In-N-Out burgers taste like. Wouldn’t that just be terrible?
