Every In-N-Out Burger super fan knows that the popular California-based burger chain has a “secret menu” with special items like “Animal Style” burgers, cheese fries, and grilled cheese sandwiches. This special list of tweaks and ad-ons is arguably the thing that people love the most about In-N-Out. The internet is rife with guides to how to order these off-the-menu items. But there’s one dish that has eluded the internet burger obsessives... until now. Say hello to the Tomato Wrap, a dish that was captured in the wild by the buddies behind the YouTube series Roommate Things:
This is basically a riff on the bun-less, sauce-slathered Protein Style burger with tomatoes instead of lettuce. In this clip, one of the hosts, Clayton, tries the burger and declares: “All I can taste is tomato. It overpowers everything.” The official In-N-Out Burger secret menu homepage does not mention the dish, but the receipt in the video lists “Tomato Wrap” as a modification for the Animal Style Double Double.
