In-N-Out and Northern Utah?

Here's the response I got from In-N-Out customer service when inquiring about the rumors surrounding additional restaurants expanding into Northern Utah, specifically Draper. It seems a bit ambiguous but looks like I may have a Double-Double animal-style sometime in the next decade.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dear T.J. Shelby:

Thank you for your e-mail, and for your interest!

We are happy to hear about the excitement regarding In-N-Out Burger's future expansion in Utah. We would ultimately like to have more than one location in and around the Salt Lake City area, and we are looking into a number of possibilities. We currently hope to open a store in Draper, Utah. However, as plans are still very tentative and subject to change, we do not have any further information about this, or any other new locations in Utah at this time.

Thanks again for taking the time to contact us. We look forward to the possibility of serving you and your community in the future.

Sincerely,

Aimee Cherry
Customer Service Representative

I just love that you actually took the time to craft a Strongly Worded Letter (a la Bean)regarding this issue.

Eventually, but they would have to build the distribution center first, for the freshness of the food...So ten years is a good prediction.

what the what?

misguided utahn's used the impending arrival of in-n-out as motivation and impetus for our change of home venue...

a decade is not exactly soon...i feel betrayed...misled...deceived...

i mostly blame you - your actual knowledge and research ruined my self-delusions. you shattered my vague hopes of turning a draper corner and stumbling on delectable animal-style goodness...
