5 burger chains rapidly growing across the US
The fast food landscape isn't entirely in decline. Even though inflation has curbed customer spending and some brands are shuttering restaurants or declaring bankruptcy, others are forging ahead with aggressive expansion plans. Burgers remain a staple of the American diet, and several burger-focused chains are meeting that demand by opening new locations at a fast pace. Here are seven burger joints that are thriving and growing, defying the industry downturn. In-N-Out The iconic West Coast brand In-N-Out is preparing to open seven more restaurants in 2025. Locations include Indio, Modesto, Monrovia, and Sylmar in California; Surprise, Arizona; Brighton, Colorado; and its first-ever Washington state outlet in Ridgefield. Shake Shack Freddy's Freddy's Frozen Custard & Steakburgers, already boasting over 550 outlets, intends to expand to 800 by the end of 2026. The brand's consistent growth can be attributed to its steadfast commitment to delivering high-quality food and a memorable guest experience. Whataburger Whataburger's growth strategy is all about maintaining standards. The Texas-based favorite is bringing eight new stores to North Carolina alone. 'We're very intentional. Each year, we revisit our five-year expansion roadmap.

Culver's Culver's, a fan-favorite known for its premium offerings, launched 53 new restaurants in 2024 and is planning 55 more in 2025.

Elk Grove police release video of officer shooting armed suspect in In-N-Out parking lot
ELK GROVE – The Elk Grove Police Department has released body camera footage of an officer shooting an armed suspect in an In-N-Out parking lot in April. Around 11:15 p.m. on April 11, the Elk Grove Police Department responded to the In-N-Out on Stockton Boulevard after receiving reports that a man was harassing juveniles and acting erratically. The person who reported the incident believed the suspect had a gun in his pocket. When officers arrived, they found the suspect, later identified as 50-year-old Jerry Tolliver, standing at a table outside. The police department said officers approached the suspect in an effort of trying to keep him away from reentering the restaurant and putting others at risk. When officers tried to tell Tolliver to put his hands up, he reached toward his pocket, police said. The officer then told him to take his hands out of his pockets. But Tolliver ran between two parked cars with a gun in his right hand and pointed it at an officer, police said. An officer shot Tolliver as he ran into the parking lot, police said. A K-9 was also deployed, as Tolliver was still holding the gun, police said. Tolliver was taken to the hospital and is expected to survive, police said. No officers were injured. Police said they recovered this gun after shooting Jerry Tolliver in an In-N-Out parking lot in Elk Grove on April 11.

In-N-Out makes recipe change to appease RFK Jr
Published: Updated: In-N-Out has announced it has already started phasing out artificial ingredients in line with Robert F. Kennedy Junior's proposal to ban them. In a statement, the beloved fast food company said it is now removing artificial colorings from its Signature Pink Lemonade and Strawberry shakes. The West Coast favorite also revealed it was moving away from using ketchup made with high fructose corn syrup, which has been linked to a higher risk of diabetes and obesity. Instead, it will be using ketchup made with real sugar. It isn't clear what artificial food dyes are used in its drinks, but this may include Red 40 — made from petroleum and which has been linked to hyperactivity in children. The 418-location fast food chain revealed the change on social media in response to a customer who said the color of its pink lemonade had changed. It is a move that could be to appease RFK Junior, who has vowed to banish eight artificial dyes linked to a variety of health problems from the US diet. Many are already banned or restricted in Europe. It comes after PepsiCo revealed late last month that it has alreaday started phasing out artificial ingredients in its popular potato chip brands Cheetos, Lay's and Doritos. Revealing the shift on X, the company said: 'As part of our ongoing commitment to providing our customers with the highest-quality ingredients, we have removed artificial coloring from our Strawberry Shakes and Signature Pink Lemonade. 'We're also in the process of transitioning to an upgraded ketchup, which is made with real sugar instead of high fructose corn syrup.' The changes to the drinks are likely to affect their color, but are not expected to impact their flavor. Ketchup made with real sugar, rather than high fructose corn syrup, is said to have a more balanced and slightly less sweet flavor. Under RFK Jr, the FDA has said it plans to phase out eight artificial food dyes by the end of 2026 amid concerns over harms to health. These are: Green 3, Red 40, Yellow 5, Yellow 6, Blue 1, Blue 2, and two rarely used dyes called Citrus Red 2 and Orange B. Revealing plans to remove the dyes last month, RFK Jr said they were 'clearly associated with a variety of a grim inventory of diseases'. This week, the FDA approved three natural food colors that will replace the artificial dyes. High fructose corn syrup has not been banned by the federal Government, but RFK Jr has made clear that he wants to 'wean America off' the byproduct. In Europe, most ketchups are already made using real sugar instead of the substance.

Seattle weather: Soggy and cloudy for Mother's Day
SEATTLE - Pockets of heavy rain and even lightning strikes are a possibility for Mother's Day in Seattle. Make sure to keep a rain jacket and umbrella close by. Highs will lift from the upper 50s to the low 60s in Seattle on Sunday afternoon. If you have plans to celebrate the mother figures in your life, I'd suggest having a 'plan b' for going inside should soggy and stormy weather develop. Any thunderstorms will be isolated in nature. While rain may make driving difficult, we're not expecting storms to be anywhere near the "severe" threshold. Tomorrow, there's a slightly better chance of thunder, but the possibility is still small. Monday will be a weird weather day: at times there could be sunbreaks. At other points, it might be damp. On Tuesday, we'll likely manage to have a dry day. Isolated showers are possible on Wednesday. Thursday might be dry during much of the day before showers return in the linger on Friday. Wetter weather may be in store for Saturday. Stay tuned for the latest on your forecast. This outlook is subject to change. Happy Mother's Day to all the wonderful mother figures out there!Warmly, Meteorologist Abby Acone New area code coming to Seattle area in June.
