Animal-style means something different here than, say, a dog-and-pony act. It’s part of a “secret” menu that just about everyone tries when they want a break from the Double-Double. Either way, cars back up onto the streets around lunch or dinner time, as if the Ringling Bros. had come to town. In-N-Out is simply California’s unofficial state fast-casual burger.
