Following up on an earlier post from Susan, someone made a brand new burger map.  This time the map shows which territories are controlled by which chains.  It would seem that Sonic is indeed America’s Texas’ Drive-Thru.

Also, I would note that my home territory of South Georgia is not really controlled by anyone.  That doesn’t reflect a lack of burger restaurants; it probably reflects that there are so many that no one chain can gain control.

And what’s up with Dairy Queen’s strangehold on the upper Midwest?  Culver’s, with its better ice cream and awesomely good cheese curds, deserves to be the winner up there.
