Man Finds Mysterious In-N-Out Burger in Queens

A New York man found a mysterious untouched In-N-Out double double. Lincoln Boehm came across the burger Saturday at around 6:30 a.m. on Sutphin Blvd. in Jamaica. Originally from Santa Monica, Boehm and his wife saw the burger and took a photo before they continued to walk.

The New York Post mentioned that Boehm knew that it was an original burger because not only has he had “over 1,000” In-N-Out burgers but he noticed that “trademark placement of the onion between the two patties, the lettuce at the bottom and the way the buns were toasted.”

In-N-Out had many locations in Arizona, Nevada, Oregon, Utah, and California, but there are no locations east of Kansas City.

The real reason why In-N-Out won’t open restaurants on the East Coast is because they refuse to sell frozen patties. In-N-Out restaurant locations are within 300 miles of where they make the patties and the only two locations are in California and Texas – hence why they aren’t in the East Coast. This is the same for all their other ingredients. Not to mention, the chain doesn’t have any freezers or microwaves at their locations.

Boehm moved to New York nine years ago and has tired to bring back burgers, but no burger has ever made it. Working as a creative director in advertising, Boehm is now on the case of this mystery burger.

His theory is that someone who is wealthy had a private jet and threw one out the window while driving to the airport. He has received other theories; social media has offered some of their theories such as it was a prop from a TV or film, and others including:

• Someone planted it there in the hopes it would sprout into a whole In N Out joint – @BrandingStinks
• It was aliens – @john_zeleznik
• A glitch in the matrix – @maxwellwhite

In-N-Out doesn’t know how the burger got to Queens. Yet, this isn’t the first time New Yorkers have been tricked by this burger chain before. In 2017, a pop-up In-N-Out location was promoted on Facebook and again the chain didn’t know how it happened.

How did this untouched burger end up in Jamaica? What theory do you have? How do we know it’s really New York streets? Which fast food chain would you like to see in your hometown?
