Bible reference on the bottom of an In-N-Out drink cup

Bible reference on wrapper of an In-N-Out Double-Double

In-N-Out prints discreet references to Bible verses on their paper utensils. The print is small and out of the way, and only contains the book, chapter and verse numbers, not the actual text of the passages. The practice began in the 1980s during Rich Snyder’s presidency, a reflection of the beliefs held by the Snyder family:

  • Burger and cheeseburger wrappers
Revelation 3:20—“Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear My voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will dine with him, and he with Me.”
  • Beverage cups and replicas
John 3:16“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”
  • Milkshake cups
Proverbs 3:5—“Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.”
  • Double-Double wrapper
Nahum 1:7—“The LORD is good, a strong hold in the day of trouble; and he knoweth them that trust in him.”
  • Paper water cups (no longer in use)
John 14:6—“Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.”

    You can read all about it — everything you ever wanted to know about California's great burger chain — in my new book: In-N-Out Burger: A Behind-The-Counter Look At The Fast-Food Chain That Breaks All The Rules (all the info on INOB, none of the calories! and a NY Times bestseller too)
