A MUCH-loved chain that went viral for its swipe at In-N-Out has been voted best fast food burger for the second year in a row.
The signature dish features two beef patties, caramelized onions, lettuce, tomato, pickles, and mayo on a toasted bun.

Beating rivals In-N-Out and Five Guys, Habit Burger & Grill’s has been crowned first place with its fan-favourite Double Char burger.
Last year, the fast-food chain celebrated its win with a pointed billboard by one of In-N-Outs sites, which said: ““Congrats on #2, In-N-Out.”
In a nod to last year’s dig the firm recently took to Instagram to celebrate its latest victory.
The post read: “As the twice-elected champion of burgers, it’s important that we, as an industry, rise above our petty differences. Especially our differences in ranking.”
Nabbing second place was A&W’s Papa Burger, made with two beef patties topped with gooey American cheese.
Third prize went to Jack in the Box‘s Jumbo Jack Cheeseburger followed by the notorious In-N-Out Double Double.
The poll was conducted by USA Today with readers and a panel of experts determining the final winner.
Habit Burger & Grill opened in Santa Barbara in 1969 under the name Hamburger Habit.
The chain has since grown to over 380 restaurants across 14 states.
